This paper deals with the response of swirling flames submitted to acoustic velocity
disturbances when the rotation of the flow is produced by an axial or a radial swirler. The …

An analytical model is derived for the linear response of swirling flames submitted to velocity
disturbances. The flame dynamics is represented by a linearized version of the G-equation …

In many continuous combustion processes, such as those found in aeroengines or gas
turbines, the flame is stabilized by a swirling flow formed by aerodynamic swirlers. The …

The dynamics of premixed confined swirling flames is investigated by examining their
response to incident velocity perturbations. A generalized transfer function designated as …

Swirling flame dynamics is investigated using a radial swirler equipped with movable
blades. This device allows to continuously change the swirl number and to examine various …

In many continuous combustion processes the flame is stabilized by swirling the injected
flow. This is the case for example in aeroengine combustors or in gas turbines where …

The most common and reliable technique used for flame stabilization of industrial
combustors with high thermal loads is the application of strongly swirling flows. In addition to …

Thermo-acoustic characterization of gas turbine combustion systems is crucial for a
successful development of new gas turbine engines to meet emission and efficiency targets …

In the present paper the influence of a periodic excitation of the mass flow rate, varied in
frequency and in amplitude, on the isothermal flow field and on the flame characteristics of …

The methodology for the measurement of dynamic combustor behavior has never been
clearly established, due to the complexities associated with unsteady premixed flames and …
