Abstract

ZK2000 is a newly developed 2 MW all radial gas turbine with an annular combustor. In this paper, the authors present the atmospheric test results of the combustor on test rig. Evaluation of several RANS turbulence models and reaction models were used in order to determine which model was the most appropriate combination for comparison with the test results. FGM with SST were selected because of the better agreement with test results in terms of combustor temperature rise, primary zone temperature, liner metal temperature, and NOx emission predictions.
