A system for aerating liquid fuel with gas for a gas turbine, comprising:
- a fuel feed for providing a gas turbine with liquid fuel;
- and
- a flow body with a feed providing the flow body with gas under pressure higher than a pressure of the liquid fuel, the flow body arranged in the fuel feed flown by the liquid fuel while flowing in the fuel feed, the flow body comprising a surface with an outlet opening for aerating the liquid fuel with the gas.
A method for aerating liquid fuel with gas for a gas turbine, the method comprising:
- providing a source of a gas under pressure which is higher than a pressure of the liquid fuel;
- supplying a flow body comprising an outlet opening with the gas under pressure;
- flowing the flow body with the liquid fuel;
- aerating the liquid fuel with the gas while exhausting the gas through the outlet opening of the flow body into the liquid fuel while the liquid fuel passing the flow body;
- and
- providing the aerated liquid fuel to the gas turbine.
