Pollutant emissions from aircraft in the vicinity of airports and at altitude are of great public
concern due to their impact on environment and human health. The legislations aimed at …

This paper reviews recent advances in understanding the structure of turbulent partially
premixed and stratified flames. The term “partially premixed” refers here to compositionally …

Soot particles emitted from aircraft engines constitute a major anthropogenic source of
pollution in the vicinity of airports and at cruising altitudes. This emission poses a significant …

A detailed analysis of the flow–flame interactions associated with acoustically coupled heat-
release rate fluctuations was performed for a 10kW, CH4/air, swirl stabilized flame in a gas …

The feasibility of applying the large-eddy simulation (LES) of spray combustion to the
investigation of the thermo-acoustic instability mechanisms in practical aero-engine …

This study mainly investigates the flame and flow characteristics under combustion instability
in a centrally-staged swirl spray combustor, using 5 kHz CH* chemiluminescence (CL) and …

A strong, naturally-occurring “growl” combustion instability was studied for the case of a lean
premixed prevaporized (LPP) combustor that shows great promise in reducing pollutant …

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

The present article investigates the interactions between the pilot and main flames in a novel
stratified swirl burner using both experimental and numerical methods. Experiments are …

A Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model capable of accurately representing finite-rate
chemistry effects in turbulent premixed combustion is presented. The LES computations use …
