Gas Turbine Spray Combustion

1. They are suitable for large engines, and for mechanical reasons, engines with high
pressure ratios.

A. Annular Type Combustor

B. Cannular Type Combustor
C. Can Type Combustor
D. Spray Combustion

2. A combustion engine that can convert natural gas or other liquid fuels to
mechanical energy. This energy then drives a generator that produces electrical
energy.

A. Compressor
B. Pump
C. Combustor
D. Turbine

3. The liquid fuel used as the energy source must be _______ into smaller droplets in
order to increase the surface of fuel exposed to the hot gases and to facilitate rapid
gasification and mixing with the oxygen rich ambience.

A. Transported
B. Vaporized
C. Combusted
D. Atomized

4. A chamber acting as the furnace in a jet engine or turbine engine, where

intense combustion is induced.

A. Combustor
B. Turbine
C. Compressor
 D. Load

5. Are self-contained cylindrical combustion chambers. These combustors were most

widely used in early gas turbine engines, owing to their ease of design and testing.

A. Can Type Combustors

B. Cannular Type Combustors
C. Annular Type Combustors
D. None of the above

6. These type of combustor do away with the separate combustion zones and simply
have a continuous liner and casing in a ring.

A. Cannular Type Combustors

B. Annular Type Combustors
C. Can Type Combustors
D. None of the above.

7. The combustion performance and emissions are mainly influenced by the

atomization of the liquid fuel, the motion and evaporation of the fuel droplets and
mixing of fuel and air.

A. True
B. False

8. In the dense spray region, droplets are well fonned and have strong interaction with
turbulent airflow.
 A. True
B. False

9. Can type combustors are more difficult to maintain than the cannular type.

A. True
B. False

10. Annular combustors tend to have very uniform exit temperatures. They also have
the lowest pressure drop of the three designs.

A. True
B. False

11. What is the proper sequencing of the five elements of the combustion process?

A. Vaporization, transport, unmixedness, atomization, and combustion

B. Unmixedness, atomization, vaporization, transport, and combustion
C. Atomization, transport, vaporization, unmixedness, and combustion
D. Transport, atomization, unmixedness, vaporization, and combustion

12. Currently most aircrafts and ships use Gas Turbine engines.

A. True
B. False
13. This combustor’s design is simpler, although testing generally requires a full size
test rig.

A. Annular Type
B. Can Type
C. Cannular Type
D. None of the above

14. In liquid-fueled combustion devices, the liquid fuel jet injected into the
combustion chamber breaks up into droplets to generate a spray. Although individual
droplet combustion may occur, fuel sprays typically evaporate and burn as a group.

A. Spray Combustion
B. Fluidized Bed Combustion
C. Pulverized Coal Combustion
D. Fixed Bed Combustion

15. What cycle is associated with gas turbines?

A. Otto
B. Dual Combustion
C. Brayton
D. Diesel

16. A gas turbine engine comprises of: compressor, combustor, and turbine, along
with fuel, inlet and exhaust air.

A. True
B. False
17. In general, liquid fuel is injected through a nozzle system into the combustor
chamber and is atomized to form a spray of droplets.

A. True
B. False

18. This type of combustor has more weight, more volume, more frontal area.

A. Cannular Type
B. Annular Type
C. Can Type
D. None of the above

19. One application of gas turbine engines is jet engines.

A. True
B. False

20. This type of combustor has low pressure loses, smaller in size and lighter in
weight, has good ignition behavior, has more number of fuel jets and has uniform exit
temperatures.

A. Can Type
B. Annular Type
C. Cannular Type
C. None of the above
