Adjoint-accelerated Bayesian inference applied to the thermoacoustic behaviour of a ducted conical flame

M Yoko, MP Juniper - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2024 - cambridge.org
We use Bayesian inference, accelerated by adjoint methods, to construct a quantitatively
accurate model of the thermoacoustic behaviour of a conical flame in a duct. We first perform …

[HTML][HTML] The effect of flame curvature and flame base movement on the frequency response of a conical Bunsen flame

A Giannotta, S Cherubini, P De Palma… - Combustion and Flame, 2024 - Elsevier

Prediction of flame transfer function and combustion instability on a partially premixed swirling combustor by the system identification and CFD methods

E Ke, C Ji, M Wang, D Pan, T Zhu - Aerospace Science and Technology, 2024 - Elsevier
Combustion instability can lead to high amplitude oscillations of pressure in the combustion
chamber, which would seriously affect the normal operation of the combustion system. In …

From abstraction to design: Interpretable tree-based machine learning for stable thermoacoustic system layout

M Kuznetsova, A Ghani - Proceedings of the Combustion Institute, 2024 - Elsevier
Thermoacoustic instabilities are a long-standing problem. Both academia and industry
researched intensively this problem, but even today, no guidelines (or design rules) exist to …
