Nine decades of rocket engine and gas turbine development have shown that
thermoacoustic oscillations are difficult to predict but can usually be eliminated with …

Thermoacoustic oscillations associated with transverse acoustic modes are routinely
encountered in combustion chambers. While a large literature on this topic exists for rockets …

This paper presents recent progress in the field of thermoacoustic combustion instabilities in
propulsion engines such as rockets or gas turbines. Combustion instabilities have been …

Accurate prediction of limit cycle oscillations resulting from combustion instability has been a
long-standing challenge. The present work uses a coupled approach to predict the limit …

Since its birth in the 1920s, quantum mechanics has motivated and advanced the analysis of
linear operators. In this effort, it significantly contributed to the development of sophisticated …

Thermoacoustic instability, also known as combustion instability, continues to be a problem
in the development of modern gas turbine combustors and rocket engines. Such instability is …

The present work introduces an annular combustion chamber operated at intermediate
pressures. The combustor is operated with CH 4-H 2 blends leading to a variety of azimuthal …

This theoretical study investigates spinning and standing modes in azimuthally symmetric
annular combustion chambers. Both modes are observed in experiments and simulations …

This paper presents an experimental study into the structure and dynamics of the phase-
averaged heat release rate during self-excited spinning and standing azimuthal modes in an …

This article reports a numerical analysis of combustion instabilities coupled by a spinning
mode or a standing mode in an annular combustor. The method combines an iterative …
