A systematic compilation and evaluation of turbulent spray flame combustion data acquired
from lab-scale spray-burners and CFD models validated with these are presented. Previous …

Large eddy simulations (LES) of self-excited spray combustion instability in an aero-engine
combustor are performed to investigate the mechanisms of combustion instability. Three …

Computational prediction of thermoacoustic instabilities arising in gas turbine and aero-
engine combustors still remains a challenge especially if fuel is injected in a liquid spray …

Identifying combustion regimes in terms of premixed and non-premixed characteristics is an
important task for understanding combustion phenomena and the structure of flames. A …

Abstract A Discrete Component Model (DCM), based on the analytical solutions to heat
transfer and species diffusion equations, together with the Abramzon-Sirignano model are …

We present a k-exact reconstruction method, which can be incorporated into vertex-centered
unstructured finite-volume flow solvers to maintain a high-order accurate solution in space …

The droplet evaporation and autoignition behaviour of a three-component kerosene
surrogate is numerically investigated for a wide range of ambient pressures and …

A computational study of one dimensional multicomponent laminar Jet-A/air spray flames is
presented. The objective is to understand the effect of various spray parameters (diameter …

As part of the global energy transition, an increasing number of sustainable liquid fuels with
a wide range of physical and chemical properties becomes available for gas turbine and IC …

This paper studies the effects of the inner and outer pilot swirlers on the flame structures and
thermo-acoustic instabilities in the triple-swirler staged combustors under various inner and …
