Abstract
Liquid fuel systems and methods are provided. A liquid fuel system includes a mixing unit and a plurality of liquid fuel supply systems. Each liquid fuel supply system is fluidly coupled to the mixing unit. The liquid fuel system further includes a controller communicatively coupled to the mixing unit and the plurality of liquid fuel supply systems. The controller includes memory and one or more processors. The memory stores instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the liquid fuel system to perform operations including providing one or more liquid fuels from the plurality of liquid fuel supply systems to the mixing unit. The operations further include mixing, with the mixing unit, the one or more liquid fuels to create a liquid fuel mixture. The operations further include providing the liquid fuel mixture to a combustion section of a turbomachine.
