The dynamics of premixed confined swirling flames is investigated by examining their
response to incident velocity perturbations. A generalized transfer function designated as …

Effusion cooling is known as one of the most effective methods to provide cooling protection
for high-temperature components in gas turbines. It is widely used in combustion chamber …

Relevant reduction on worldwide greenhouse gases emissions shall be based on more
efficient power generation systems linked to a carbon capture and storage technology …

In this investigation the flow in a generic swirl tube with a tangential double-inlet swirl
generator and variable exit orifices was experimentally investigated. Using magnetic …

The performance of the gas turbine system used in aviation depends on the nature of flame
that occurs at the burner's vent placed in the combustor. The recirculation zone enhances …

Combustion performance of a non-premixed combustor with a slotted swirler was
experimentally and numerically investigated. The velocity and temperature profiles in the …

The paper presents an assessment of the performances of RANS turbulence models for
simulating turbulent swirling can-combustor flows with different inlet swirl intensities (ie S …

Abstract A 2D PIV technique was applied to investigate the swirling flow motion inside a
rectangular-shaped model chamber. Flow velocity profiles are analyzed through several …

The effect of step height on heat transfer to a radially outward expanded air flow stream in a
concentric annular passage was studied experimentally. Separation, subsequent …

Micro-gas turbines are a good alternative for on-site power generation, since their operation
is very reliable. The possibility of operating with various fuels increases versatility and, as a …
