ABSTRACT:
In a gas turbine power plant fuel and air are mixed and ignited in a combustor to provide motive fluid for driving a gas turbine. A fuel nozzle is used to provide a fuel/air mixture into the combustor. According to the present invention, the fuel nozzle also includes an igniter for igniting the fuel/air mixture under conditions which extend the operating range of the gas turbine plant. Also, the igniter is coated with a gas fuel ignition catalyst in order to minimize the fuel/air mixture strength required for combustion and the air pollutants associated with combustion.
