    Flow divider for Water Injection into Frame 6FA (NOx abatement)

    Hi James, that would be very much appreciated. What I mainly do not get is that GE has designed a flow divider with about 20 bearings (ball and needle type) in the water without lubrication. That is not going to work, right?

    Flow divider for Water Injection into Frame 6FA (NOx abatement)

    Thanks James. We are worried about the NOx emissions, however the Water Injection system is not reliable.

    Flow divider for Water Injection into Frame 6FA (NOx abatement)

    CSA, thanks very much. So speed of flow divider is related to the pressure in and out. Flow divider sectional drawing is shown below, and the bearings inside are all needle type bearings. These are thus lubricated by the BFW quality type of water that is injected. That does not seem to be a very...

    Flow divider for Water Injection into Frame 6FA (NOx abatement)

    Please see the simple design page from MkVIe on the Water Injection system. Fuel as designed is Dual fuel system with MNQC combustor. Fuels are LPG (1. Propane as one mode fuel and 2. Butane in another mode) and Diesel Oil as liquid fuel to start-up. Unit is indeed designed by Belfort. As...

    Flow divider for Water Injection into Frame 6FA (NOx abatement)

    Hi, I would like to understand who has experience with the operation of a mechanical driven flow divider (make Scherzinger) for Water Injection in a Frame 6FA combustion section for NOx abatement. Has anyone experienced the failure of such flow dividers and what was the cause.
