The development of clean, sustainable energy systems is one of the pre-eminent issues of our time. Most projections indicate that combustion-based energy conversion systems will continue to be the predominant approach for the majority of our energy usage, and gas turbines will continue to be important combustion-based energy conversion devices for many decades to come, used for aircraft propulsion, ground-based power generation, and mechanical-drive applications. This book compiles the key scientific and technological knowledge associated with gas turbine emissions into a single authoritative source. The book has three sections: the first section reviews major issues with gas turbine combustion, including design approaches and constraints, within the context of emissions. The second section addresses fundamental issues associated with pollutant formation, modeling, and prediction. The third section features case studies from manufacturers and technology developers, emphasizing the system-level and practical issues that must be addressed in developing different types of gas turbines that emit pollutants at acceptable levels.

While artificial intelligence has made significant strides in imaging and natural language processing, its utilization in engineering science remains relatively new. This book aims to introduce machine learning techniques to facilitate the emulation of complex fluid flows. The work focuses on projection-based reduced-order models (ROMs) that condense high-dimensional data into a low-dimensional subspace by leveraging principal components. Techniques like proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and convolutional autoencoder (CAE) are utilized to configure this subspace, establishing a functional mapping between input parameters and solution fields. The applicability of POD-based ROMs for spatial and spatiotemporal problems are explored across various engineering scenarios, including flow past a cylinder, supercritical turbulent flows, and hydrogen-blended combustion. To capture intricate dynamics, common POD, kernel-smoothed POD, and common kernel-smoothed POD methods are developed in sequence. Additionally, the effectiveness of POD and CAE in capturing nonlinear features are compared. This book is designed to benefit graduate students and researchers interested in the intersection of data and engineering sciences.

Coal, still used to generate more than half of the electric power in the U.S., will likely be part of any future global energy plan. But this finite resource is also responsible for 80 percent of the CO2 emissions from power production, and its continued use will require improved processing techniques that are less damaging to the environment and less costly. One viable option is the use of "clean coal" energy conversion devices that rely on the combustion of gasified coal, referred to as synthesis gas, or syngas. Synthesis Gas Combustion: Fundamentals and Applications presents work from leading combustion authorities who offer their perspectives on various energy and environmental issues linked to the development of syngas and hydrogen combustion. This volume summarizes the current understanding of syngas, focusing first on combustion fundamentals and then on issues specific to application and utilization in fuel cells, internal combustion engines, and steady-flowing combustion devices such as gas turbines or boilers. In discussing syngas production, this book details the technical issues and trade-offs that influence fuel composition. It also explores combustion fundamentals of "clean coal" technologies, including chemical kinetics, flame properties, and emissions.Governments and companies around the world are devoting significant resources to improve understanding of the combustion of coal and bio-derived synthesis gases, to maximize the benefits of gasification technology and limit CO2 emissions. This valuable reference provides state-of-the-art context and technical information needed to develop clean energy systems. These include clean coal technologies, hydrogen and liquid fuel production, use of biomass feedstocks, and usage in fuel cells and other advanced power generation technologies.
