Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant converts coal to syngas, which is mainly composed with hydrogen and carbon monoxide, by the gasification process and produces electric power by the gas and steam turbine combined cycle power plant. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of the syngas to the performance of a gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. For this purpose, a commercial gas turbine is selected and its performance characteristics are analyzed with syngas. It is found that different heating values of those fuels and chemical compositions in their combustion gases are the causes in the different performance characteristics. Also, Changing of turbine inlet Mass flow lead to change the turbine matching point, in the event the pressure ratio is changed.

This paper describes gas turbine combustion characteristics of synthetic gas which is mainly composed of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. The combustion characteristics such as combustion instability, NOx and CO emission, temperatures at turbine inlet, liner and dump plane, and flame structure were investigated when changing when changing $H_2:CO$ ratio, dilution ratio, and $CH_4:syngas$ ratio. From the results, quantitative relationships are derived between key aspects of combustion performance, notably NOx emission. It is concluded that NOx emission of syngas is strongly influenced by the diluent heat capacity and combustion instability. Moreover, NOx control method using diluents such as $N_2$, $CO_2$, steam is verified.

The present study numerically investigate detailed flame structure of the Syngas diffusion flames. In order to realistically represent the turbulence-chemistry interaction and the spatial inhomogeneity of scalar dissipation rate, the Eulerian Particle Flamelet Model(EPFM) with multiple flamelets has been applied to simulate the combustion processes and NOx formation in the syngas turbulent nonpremixed flames. And level-set approach is also utilized to account for the partially premixing effect at fuel and oxidizer injector in KEPRI nonpremixed combustor. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussion has been made for the precise structure and NOx formation characteristics of the turbulent syngas nonpremixed flames.

The fully coupled conditional moment closure(CMC) model has been developed to realistically simulate the structure of complex turbulent nonpremixed syngas flame, in which the flame structure could be considerablyl influenced by the turbulence, transport history, and heat transfer as well. In order to correctly account for the transport effect, the CMC transport equations fully coupled with the flow and mixing fields are numerically solved. The present CMC approach has successfully demonstrated the capability to realistically predict the detailed structure and the overall combustion characteristics. The numerical results obtained in this study clearly reveal the importance of the convective and radiative heat transfer in the precise structure and NOx emission of the present confined combustor with a cooling wall.

The present study was conducted to investigate the flame instability(evaluated by Markstein length and cellular instability) and laminar burning velocity in a constant volume combustion chamber at room temperature and elevated pressure up to 0.3 MPa to suggest the possibility of utilizing mixtures of syngas added DME-air premixed flames in internal combustion engines. The experimentally measured laminar burning velocities were compared to predictions calculated the PREMIX code with Zhao reaction mechanism. Discussions were made on effects of syngas addition into DME-Air premixed flames through evaluating laminar burning velocity, Markstein length, and cellular instability. Particular concerns are focused on cellular instability caused by hydrodynamic instability and diffusive-thermal instability.

Experimental studies are conducted to investigate the flame stability and the thermal/fuel NOx formation characteristics of the low calorific value(LCV) gas fuel. Synthetic LCV fuel gas is produced through mixing carbon monoxide, hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia on the basis that the thermal input of the syngas fuel into a burner is identical to that of natural gas, and then the syngas mixture is fed to and burnt with air on flat flame burner. Flame behaviors are observed to identify flame instability due to blow-off or flash-back when burning the LCV fuel gas at various equivalence ratio conditions. Measurements of NOx in combustion gas are made for comparing thermal and fuel NOx emissions from the LCV syngas combustion with those of the natural gas one, and for analyzing ammonia to NOx conversion mechanism. In addition, the nitrogen dilution of the LCV syngas is preliminarily attempted as a NOx reduction technique.

Internal combustion engines running on syngas, which can be obtained from biomass or organic wastes, are expected to be one of the suitable alternatives for power generation, because they are environment-friendly and do not contribute to the depletion of fossil fuels. However, syngas has variable compositions and a lower heating value than pure natural gas, owing to which the combustion conditions need to be adjusted in order to achieve stable combustion. In this study, a gas that has the same characteristics as syngas, such as low heating value (LHV), was produced by mixing $N_2$ with compressed natural gas (CNG). In addition, this study investigates the combustion characteristics of syngas when it is mixed with hydrogen in a ratio ranging from 10% to 30% with a constant LHV of total gas.

Syngas can be used as raw material for chemical and fuel production. Currently, many studies on syngas production from gasification of biomass have been conducted. Kenaf is a promising renewable resource with high productivity and CO₂ immobilization. This study developed a large-scale kenaf gasification process based on the experimental data, and evaluated the techno-economic feasibility, which consists of three steps (integrated process design, heat exchanger network design, techno-economic assessment). The minimum selling price of syngas is US$ 9.55/GJ, and it is lower than current market price of syngas.
