A recuperated microturbine system including a low temperature duct burner in the exhaust gas which accommodates significant variations in the exhaust gas flow from the recuperator, which burns the added hydrocarbon fuel, for example natural gas, reasonably efficiently, without generating a significant amount of additional NOx. A wire mesh burner is used to burn the added fuel in part of the exhaust gas from the recuperator. The duct burner is operated either in a more or less radiant combustion mode, or in a blue flame mode. The remainder of the recuperator exhaust gas, which bypasses the afterburner, is heated mainly by radiant heat transfer from the wire mesh burner. The use of the wire mesh burner minimises additional NOxformation. In the duct burner the dynamic pressure of the exhaust gas is used to overcome the inherent static pressure loss of the wire mesh burner. The fuel flow, and exhaust air flow, to the burner are both controlled to provide stable combustion, in relation to the heat content required in the exhaust gas.

1. An afterburner, for use in an exhaust gas stream contained within an exhaust gas duct from a recuperated microturbine, including in combination: (a) an exhaust gas intake tube, of the same cross sectional shape as, and smaller cross sectional area than, the exhaust gas duct, mounted substantially coaxially with the exhaust gas duct, which intake tube has a first upstream end which receives exhaust gas and a second downstream end; (b) a throttle means located in the intake tube adjacent its first upstream end constructed and arranged to control exhaust gas flow in the intake tube; (c) a fuel feed for a hydrocarbon fuel located in the intake tube adjacent to the throttle plate; and (d) a wire mesh burner attached to the second downstream end of the intake tube and extending in a down stream direction from the second end of the intake tube; wherein the wire mesh burner comprises a shaped burner membrane consisting of a non-sintered fabric type membrane fabricated from heat resistant stainless steel fibre bundles in which the fibres have a substantially parallel arrangement and an equivalent fibre diameter of from about 1μ to about 150μ. 2. An afterburner according to claim 1 further including: (e) a perforated radiation tube, of the same cross section as, of a larger cross sectional area than, and mounted substantially coaxially with, the intake tube to extend in a down stream direction from the second end of the intake tube to a point beyond the end of the wire mesh burner. 3. An afterburner according to claim 1, wherein the wire mesh burner membrane has the same cross sectional shape as the intake duct. 4. An afterburner according to claim 1 wherein the hydrocarbon fuel is natural gas. 5. An afterburner according to claim 1 wherein both the exhaust gas duct, the exhaust gas intake tube and the perforated radiation tube are cylindrical, and the wire mesh burner is conical, with its wide end attached to the second end of the intake duct. 6. An afterburner according to claim 5 wherein both the exhaust gas duct, the exhaust gas intake tube and the perforated radiation tube are cylindrical, and a radius of the exhaust gas intake tube is about one half of a radius of the exhaust gas duct. 7. An afterburner according to claim 1 wherein the throttle means comprises a plate rotatable on a axis which is substantially perpendicular to an axis of the exhaust gas intake tube. 8. An afterburner according to claim 5 wherein both the exhaust gas duct, the exhaust gas intake tube and the perforated radiation tube are cylindrical, a radius of the exhaust gas intake tube is about one half of a radius of the exhaust gas duct, and the throttle means comprises a circular plate rotatable on a axis which is substantially perpendicular to an axis of the exhaust gas intake tube. 9. An afterburner according to claim 1 wherein the fuel feed comprises a hollow spindle located transversely across the intake tube having a plurality of fuel feed jets. 10. An afterburner according to claim 1 wherein the fuel feed comprises a hollow spindle located transversely across the intake tube and the throttle means comprises a plate rotatable on the hollow spindle.
