The development of advanced military aero-engines with high thrust-to-weight ratios
requires high-temperature-rise (HTR) technology for core component combustors. This …

Combustion instabilities are often manifested in modern fuel-lean gas turbine combustors.
Investigating the mechanisms and developing control strategies for combustion instabilities …

To investigate the influence of swirling air flow field on the spray characteristics and the
droplet behaviors of the swirl cup airblast fuel injector, a single swirler cup and a double …

One of the key parameters for spray-flame synthesis of nanoparticles with defined properties
is the temporal flame stability. Flame pulsation and consequently flame stability strongly …

Centrally staged lean premixed pre-evaporation combustion technology has been used in
aero engines for its capability in effectively reducing NOx emissions while still providing …

In this study, the non-premixed swirl-stabilized flame in a gas turbine combustor is
simulated. For this purpose, first, an efficient model for the simulation of combusting flow in …

Altitude relight is an increasingly important issue limiting the development of low-emission
combustors due to the current trend towards lean combustion. This paper experimentally …

The ignition performance of the spray flame is an important safety parameter in a gas turbine
combustor. Previous studies have shown that the spark axial location has a significant …

The interaction between liquid fuel and the walls poses a major challenge to using the
airblast atomizer in the combustor of an advanced aero-engine because the mechanism of …

This study was dedicated to introducing a new method for predicting the Sauter mean
diameter (SMD) buildup in the swirl cup airblast fuel injector. There have been considerable …
