Abstract

See full text

A combustion system for a gas turbine includes a combustion chamber having an end section and a pre-combustion section extending from the end section, a swirler device, an optional pilot burner device and a light emitting arrangement. Main fuel is injectable by the swirler device into an inner volume of the pre-combustion section. The main flame using main fuel is producible inside the inner volume. The pilot burner device is mounted to the end section of the combustion chamber such that a pilot fuel is injectable by the pilot burner device into the inner volume of the pre-combustion section, wherein a pilot flame using the pilot fuel is producible inside the inner volume for stabilizing the main flame. The light emitting arrangement emits an electromagnetic radiation into the inner volume, such that an energy input is generatable by the electromagnetic radiation for stabilizing the pilot flame and/or the main flame.
