Abstract

Hydrogen is a promising fuel because it has good capabilities to operate gas turbines. Due to its ignition speed, which exceeds the ignition of traditional fuel, it achieves a higher thermal efficiency while the resulting emissions are low. So, it was used as a clean and sustainable energy source. This paper reviews the most important research that was concerned with studying the characteristics of hydrogen combustion within incinerators and power generation equipment, where hydrogen was used as a fuel mixed with traditional fuel in the combustion chambers of gas turbines. It also includes an evaluation of the combustion processes and flame formation resulting from the enrichment of gaseous fuels with hydrogen and partial oxidation. A large amount of theoretical and experimental work in this field has been reviewed. This review summarizes the predictive and experimental results of various research interests in the field of hydrogen combustion and also production.
