.. Combustor efficiency and emissions are always high on the agenda in any development programme and in our case ...small micro turbines, probably the easiest to look at...it all comes down to what money you can afford to spend for what gain.
Yep, it will all be over when the Government steps in and says you are going to have to put O/2 sensors & a Catalytic Converter on that thing.
Aircraft engines are regulated on CO, HC, NOx and Smoke.. combustor efficiency brings with it a reduction in these, i dont think anyone will jump on us just yet but we could help ourselves make the fuel we have available on board last longer
