The effect of inlet swirl on the flow development and combustion dynamics in a lean-
premixed swirl-stabilized combustor has been numerically investigated using a large-eddy …

Interference mechanisms of acoustic/convective disturbances were experimentally
investigated in a swirl-stabilized lean-premixed gas turbine combustor operated with natural …

GAS-TURBINE engines have traditionally used diffusioname combustors because of their
reliable performance and reasonable stability characteristics. Unfortunately, this type of …

Interaction between flow instabilities and acoustic resonant modes and their effect on heat
release were investigated and controlled in an experimental low-emission swirl stabilized …

Combustion instabilities represent a long known problem in combustion technology. The
complex interactions between acoustics and turbulent swirling flames are not fully …

Constructive interference between heat release rate and acoustic perturbation is
responsible for the growth of acoustic pressure amplitudes, leading to high-amplitude …

The turbulent flow within a complex swirled combustor is studied with compressible large
eddy simulation (LES), acoustic analysis, and experiments for both cold and reacting flows …

Large eddy simulations (LES) using a subgrid mixing and combustion model are carried out
to study two bluff-body stabilized swirling non-premixed flames (SM1 and SMA2). The …

The present work addresses unsteady flame dynamics in a lean-premixed swirl-stabilized
combustor, with attention focused on the transition of flame structure from a stable to an …

A comprehensive study on influences of hydrodynamic features of a swirling flow on
thermoacoustic instabilities in a swirl stabilized combustor is performed by using large eddy …
