Recently developed lean-burn combustors offer reduced NOx emissions for gas turbines. The flow at exit of lean-burn combustors is dominated by hot streaks and residual swirl, which have been shown—individually—to impact turbine aerodynamic performance.

On the use of load-transformation matrices when working with internal wind tunnel balances [PDF]
Internal wind tunnel balances are often classified by the design as 'force', 'moment' or 'direct-read' balances. Only the direct-read balances can immediately yield the total loads; with other designs, balance-type-specific transformations of actually ...

Experimental and numerical research of the influence of thrust vector control on the missile aerodynamics by cold and hot jet simulations [PDF]
The flow field phenomena that occur as a result of thrust vector control (TVC) system activity on a missile with lateral jets are very complex and influence all other components of the missile.
