Particle Morphology and Elemental Composition of Heavy Fuel Oil Ash at Varying Atomization Pressures

Land-based turbine engines are currently used to burn heavy fuel oil (HFO), which is a lower cost fuel. HFO contains inorganic material that forms deposits on turbine blades reducing output and efficiency. Magnesium based additives are used to inhibit vanadium pentoxide deposition and reduce the cor...
