Catalytic combustion is a promising technology for future, ultra low emission gas turbines.
Very little data is available on catalytic combustion at high pressures and therefore a project is starting with the objective of generating high quality data for catalytic combustors operating at pressures relevant to gas turbines. The study is mainly experimental. A test rig already exists but has to be modified. Requirements include knowledge in energy technology, energy processes and combustion. Practical as well as theoretical work will be done within the project.
