Abstract
Heavy duty gas turbines are one of the most used technologies for the power generation. Nowadays has been crucial, especially for the power generation sector, to comply a new sustainable development according to the Agenda 2030 goal 7. The main objective of this thesis is to define a 3D CFD water injection model optimizing the computational costs required by this kind of simulation. Water injection represent an answer to decrease the NOx emissions produced by a heavy-duty gas turbine. The water inside the combustor works as a heat sink, lowering the temperature of the flame with the direct consequence on the NOx abatement.
Also, the water introducing is an additional working fluid inside the combustor and that produce a turbine power output increase
