Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Technical Reference: Capstone MicroTurbine Fuel Requirements Liquid Fuel Viscosity High fuel viscosity may result in increased heating of the fuel pump internal components, which may affect the fuel pump performance. High fuel viscosity may result in cold start problems due to its effect on fuel atomization, and may also increase emissions. Lower than specified fuel viscosity may result in increased internal leakage of the fuel pump, which may adversely affect the fuel metering accuracy, especially under low flow conditions. Liquid Fuel Pump Life Liquid fuel pump life may be adversely affected by the fuel viscosity, fuel lubricity, and fuel temperature, in addition to any contaminants in the fuel that are outside of the requirements detailed within this document. Water in Liquid Fuels Excessive water present in liquid fuels may result in freezing at cold temperatures that may result in fuel system malfunction and system shutdown. Excessive water may also result in biological growth in fuel system components, especially within the fuel filter. MicroTurbine (Engine) Evaluation Concerns The MicroTurbine (Engine) evaluation areas include the following items: Damage of MicroTurbine Hot End Components Due to their chemistry, some fuel contaminants (sulfur, for example) may lead to hot end component damage (combustor, and/or other components). Combustible Liquids in a Gaseous Fuel System The presence of liquids in a gaseous fuel, either from the fuel or from the fuel gas compressor lubricating oil, may result in MicroTurbine (engine) hardware damage. Surge Fuels with reduced volumetric heating values will reduce surge margin of the engine. This may result in unsteady operation of the MicroTurbine. 410002 Rev G (October 2009) Page 17 of 18 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction.PDF Image | Technical Reference Capstone MicroTurbine Fuel Requirements
