This paper describes an experimental study of the response of a premixed combustion
process to imposed pressure oscillations. These data were obtained to improve current …

The mechanisms responsible for driving and damping of pressure oscillations in a
laboratory combustor have been investigated. The chamber contains a turbulent …

Combustion instability in gas turbine engines is often mitigated using fuel staging. Fuel
staging, sometimes referred to as fuel splitting, is a strategy by which fuel is unevenly …

This paper presents a theoretical investigation of combustion instabilities in low NOX gas
turbines (LNGT) that burn fuel in a lean premixed mode. It is shown that these instabilities …

There has been increased demand in recent years for gas turbines that operate in a lean,
premixed (LP) mode of combustion in an effort to meet stringent emissions goals …

This paper describes an investigation of the statistical characteristics of self-excited and
noise-driven pressure oscillations in a premixed combustor. This work was motivated by …

Self-excited oscillations in low emission, premixed combustion systems are often caused by
feedback between unsteady heat release rates and reactive mixture equivalence ratio …

Lean premixed combustion has emerged as a method of achieving low pollutant emissions
from gas turbines. A common problem of lean premixed combustion is combustion …

There has been increased demand in recent years for gas turbines that operate in a lean,
premixed (LP) mode of combustion in an effort to meet stringent emissions goals …

This paper presents the results of a study of the potential causes of frequently observed
combustion instabilities in low NOx gas turbines (LNGT) that burn gaseous fuels in a …
