Abstract
A turbomachine including a combustor in which fuel is combustible to produce a working fluid, a turbine section, which is receptive of the working fluid for power generation operations, a transition piece in which additional fuel is combustible, the transition piece being disposed to transport the working fluid from the combustor to the turbine section and a staged combustion system coupled to the combustor and the transition piece. The staged combustion system is configured to blend components of the fuel and the additional fuel in multiple modes.
