TLDR
In this article, the authors present an apparatus configured to diffuse a flow of bleed air, having an inlet collar configured to receive the flow of air in a direction substantially along a longitudinal axis of the apparatus.Abstract:
In one aspect, the present disclosure is directed an apparatus configured to diffuse a flow of bleed air. The apparatus having an inlet collar configured to receive the flow of bleed air in a direction substantially along a longitudinal axis of the apparatus. The apparatus further having an end wall longitudinally spaced apart from the inlet collar and configured to block the flow of bleed air in a direction substantially along the longitudinal axis. The apparatus also having a first diffuser wall spaced concentrically relative to a second diffuser wall, each of the first and second diffuser walls positioned between the inlet collar and the end wall and including a plurality of perforations configured to permit the flow of bleed air to exit the apparatus at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis.read more

Power plant with steam generation via combustor gas extraction
Abstract: A power plant includes a gas turbine having a combustor downstream from a compressor, a turbine disposed downstream from the combustor and an exhaust duct downstream from an outlet of the turbine. The combustor includes an extraction port that is in fluid communication with a hot gas path of the combustor. The extraction port defines a flow path for a stream of combustion gas to flow out of the hot gas path. The exhaust duct receives exhaust gas from the turbine outlet. A coolant injection system injects a coolant into the stream of combustion gas upstream from the exhaust duct such that the stream of combustion gas blends with the exhaust gas from the turbine within the exhaust duct and forms an exhaust gas mixture within the exhaust duct. A heat exchanger is disposed downstream from the exhaust duct and receives the exhaust gas mixture from the exhaust duct.
