Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of combustion technology. It refers to a Helmholtz damper according to the preamble of claim 1 .
- FIG. 1 shows in a perspective view an exemplary stationary or industrial gas turbine of the GT13 E2 type.
- the gas turbine 10 comprises in a casing 13 a rotor 12 , which rotates around a machine axis and defines within the casing 13 an annular hot gas channel extending in axial direction through the machine.
- a compressor 14 with several stages of running blades compresses air, which enters the machine through an air inlet 11 .
- the compressed air with a compressor outlet pressure pk 2 fills a plenum and enters a combustor 15 , where it is mixed with a fuel supplied by a plurality of burners 16 .
- the burners 16 are configured as so-called AEV (or Advanced Environmental Vortex) burners, which are described for example in document WO 2009/109454.
- FIG. 2 shows the main parameters of a generic Helmholtz damper configuration.
- the Helmholtz damper 20 of FIG. 2 comprises a damper volume 21 with a volume V, which is in fluidic connection with a damped space (combustor) 19 via a neck tube 22 of length L N and inner diameter D N ; u denotes the bias mean flow.
- the resonance frequency f of this damper can be approximately calculated by the formula:
- Helmholtz damper 20 When Helmholtz damper 20 is attached to the combustor 15 of gas turbine 10 of FIG. 1 , it is surrounded by the plenum of the gas turbine, which is filled with compressed air of compressor outlet pressure pk 2 . Cooling air is introduced into damper volume 21 through an orifice 23 , which experiences a pressure drop ⁇ p due to the difference between the (higher) compressor outlet pressure pk 2 and the (lower) pressure within the combustion chamber of the combustor.
- the frequency of the pulsations within the combustor depends on the operation mode of the gas turbine. Especially, there is a change in pulsation frequency f P , when the gas turbine changes from part load operation to base load operation, and vice versa. For a gas turbine of the type shown in FIG. 1 there can be a change of up to 20% of pulsation frequency f P between part load and base load, with the pulsation frequency increasing with growing load.
- the resonance frequency of the dampers should stay tuned to the pulsation frequency even if the load conditions of the gas turbine change.
- the damper volume V should be changed in accordance with a change in the load conditions.

- Document DE 100 26 121 A1 describes an apparatus for damping acoustic vibrations in a combustor as well as a corresponding combustor arrangement with the apparatus.
- the apparatus comprises a Helmholtz resonator that can be connected via a connecting channel with a combustor.
- the Helmholtz resonator contains a hollow body the volume of which can be changed by adding or draining a fluid via a supply line, or is located adjacent to such a hollow body in such a way that the resonance volume of the Helmholtz resonator is changed when the volume of the hollow body is changed.
- This apparatus makes it possible to adjust the resonance frequency of a Helmholtz resonator arranged inside a pressure container in accordance with the respective current operating point of the combustor to be damped, without having to pass movable components through the pressure container.
