Combustion instability sustained by unsteady vortex combustion [PDF]
The determination of an internal feedback mechanism which leads to combustion instability inside a small scale laboratory combustor is presented in this paper. During combustion instability, the experimental findings show that a large vortical structure is formed at an acoustic resonant mode of the system.

Pulsating regimes of flames propagation in a model with chain-branching reaction [PDF]
In this paper we investigate propagation of planar combustion waves in an adiabatic model with two-step chain branching reaction mechanism. Pulsating instabilities are found to emerge for fuel Lewis number greater than one due to a Hopf bifurcation.

The intermittent nature of operation and unpredictable availability of renewable sources of energy (e.g., wind and solar) would require the combustors in fossil-fuel power plants, sharing the same grid, to operate with large turn-down ratios. This brings

Numerical Analysis of Self-Excited Combustion Instabilities in a Small MMH/NTO Liquid Rocket Engine
Combustion instabilities in a small MMH/NTO liquid rocket engine used for satellite attitude and course control are numerically investigated. A three-dimensional Navier-Stokes code is developed to simulate two-phase spray combustion for cases with five ...

Experimental Investigation of Flame Anchoring Behavior in a LOX/LNG Rocket Combustor
Hot fire tests of a multi-injector research combustor were performed with liquid-oxygen and liquefied-natural-gas (LOX/LNG) propellants at chamber pressures from 30 up to 67 bar, hence at conditions similar to an upper stage rocket engine.

Cycle-Resolved Computations of Stratified-Charge Turbulent Combustion in Direct Injection Engine
An extremely lean burning engine has been expected to improve fuel consumption rate of engines. To achieve this, stable combustion should be realized for a wide range of operating conditions at air-fuel ratio over 40.0.
