Book Combustion Instabilities in Gas Turbine Engines

Download or read book Combustion Instabilities in Gas Turbine Engines written by Timothy C. Lieuwen and published by AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics). This book was released on 2005 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers gas turbine users and manufacturers a valuable resource to help them sort through issues associated with combustion instabilities. In the last ten years, substantial efforts have been made in the industrial, governmental, and academic communities to understand the unique issues associated with combustion instabilities in low-emission gas turbines. The objective of this book is to compile these results into a series of chapters that address the various facets of the problem. The Case Studies section speaks to specific manufacturer and user experiences with combustion instabilities in the development stage and in fielded turbine engines. The book then goes on to examine The Fundamental Mechanisms, The Combustor Modeling, and Control Approaches.

Book Propulsion System Flow Stability Program  Dynamic   Part IX  Combustion Instability Model Program Description and Parametric Study Results

Download or read book Propulsion System Flow Stability Program Dynamic Part IX Combustion Instability Model Program Description and Parametric Study Results written by Donald M. Dix and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part IX describes a theoretical investigation of combustion instability in aircraft engine augmentors. Included is a general description of the analytical model and its digital computer solution. The model determines the frequencies, amplitudes, and spatial distributions of self-excited pressure oscillations in an afterburner or duct burner. The results of a parametric investigation of combustion instability in two turbojet afterburners are also reported. Good agreement between computed and observed trends has confirmed the conceptual validity of the analytical model. The parametric study also confirmed the utility of the computer programs in evaluating design modifications for suppressing or eliminating combustion instability. The computer programs are recommended for use now in engine design projects, but more advanced treatment of some of the input quantities, in conjunction with experimental data, will doubtlessly refine the accuracy of the solution.

Book Effect of Rayleigh Taylor Instability on Fuel Consumption Rate

Download or read book Effect of Rayleigh Taylor Instability on Fuel Consumption Rate written by Brandon S. Long and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extensive numerical investigation is conducted in order to assess the effect of Rayleigh-Taylor instability on fuel consumption rate (or flame speed). Two geometries are used for this investigation, viz., a high pressure high-g (HPHG) cavity stabilized combustor and a curved duct with a backward facing step. The former geometry is a more practical combustion system that contains liquid fuel injectors with operating conditions that mimic gas turbine cycles, whereas the latter is a canonical combustor used to study turbulent premixed flames. Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and large eddy simulations (LES) are used. RANS is used for the practical combustor, and both RANS and LES are used for the canonical combustor. The combustion models used are the flamelet generated manifold (FGM) and the two-step species transport for the practical and canonical combustor, respectively. The HPHG combustor is designed to induce bulk rotational flow in the cavity, inducing centrifugal acceleration. The centrifugal force acts from the high-density reactants towards the low-density products creating a Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI). Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities are expected to increase the turbulent flame speed and reduce the size of the combustor by increasing the flame wrinkling and/or corrugation. Simulations at two different levels of centrifugal acceleration, and, consequently, dissimilar Rayleigh-Taylor instability were performed. It was found that the nominal g-loads are overestimating the local g-loads from the simulation because thermal expansion is not taken into account. From these simulations it was not possible to discern the effect of RTI on fuel consumption rate due to the complex physical-chemical process inherent to this combustor such as fuel vaporization, molecular mixing, spray-turbulence interaction, turbulence-chemistry interaction, and partial premixing. Therefore, gaseous premixed turbulent flames were simulated in a curved duct with a backward facing step. Two radius of curvature were used, viz., an infinite (straight duct) and a finite radius of curvature (curved duct). These combustors were operated at low and high Reynolds number (3,200 and 32,000). The computational results are compared with broadband chemiluminescence and shadowgraph images reported in the literature for similar conditions and geometries. Both RANS and LES results are in general agreement with measurements. Both experiments and simulations show that increasing the Reynolds number in both straight and curved canonical combustor the flame cannot withstand the Karlovitz number effects and the flame is positioned behind the backward-facing step. In addition, the LES results indicate that at high Reynolds number the flame blows out for the straight channel while it remains stabilized for the curved channel. This result is in agreement with the blowout data reported in the literature. On the other hand, RANS over predict the flame stabilization for the straight channel. Consequently, RANS should not be used in research involving RTI-induced blowout. In conclusion, RTI interacts with a turbulent premixed flame and its overall effect is to extend the conditions under which turbulent premixed flames can be stabilized. This improved flame stabilization is a direct manifestation that the fuel consumption rate (or flame speed) has been enhanced in order for the flame to withstand higher Karlovitz number effects induced by high Reynolds number. However, the mechanism through which RTI works on the turbulent premixed flame is not clear. A new hypothesis is proposed. The increase in RTI should increase the turbulent length scale as well as increase the Karlovitz number. The corrugated flame would withstand the higher Karlovitz number because RTI temporarily and periodically reverses the turbulent energy cascade by minimizing the potential energy of the stratified flow.

Book Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and Related Topics

Download or read book Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and Related Topics written by Claude-Michel Brauner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains invited lectures and contributed papers presented at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and related topics, held in. Lyon (France), April 27 - 30, 1987. This conference was planned to fit in with the two-month visit of Professor G.S.S. Ludford to the Ecole Centrale de Lyon. He kindly agreed to chair the Scientific and Organizing Committee and actively helped to initiate the meeting. His death in December 1986 is an enormous loss to the scientific community in general, and in particular, to the people involved in the present enterprise. The subject of mathematical modeling in combustion is too large for a single conference, and the selection of topics re flects both areas of recent research activity and areas of in terest to Professor G.S.S. Ludford, to whose memory the Advanced Workshop and this present volume are dedicated. The meeting was divided into seven specialized sessions detonation theory, mathematical analysis, numerical treatment of combustion problems, flame theory, experimental and industrial aspects, complex chemistry, and turbulent combustion. It brought together researchers and engineers from University and Industry (see below the closing remarks of the workshop by Prof. N. Peters). The articles in this volume have been judged and accepted on their scientific quality, and language corrections may have been sacrificed in order to allow quick dissemination of knowledge to prevail.
