—”What is new here?”
The process when used with a gas turbine”
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/chemistry/catalytic-combustion
I scanned quickly the paper posted, It seems that lower NOx emission is a key point. However, the turbine engine and the reciporcating engine mentioned in the new generation innovation are heat engines.
I welcome the use of new catalytic processes and such innovation, but I fail to understand how low temperature combustion leads to greater thermodynamic efficiency.
I get that gas bearings are better than sliding bearings, and so on, but again where is the magic? I hope that this is a disruptive technology, but I am not seeing it yet.
Best Regards.
