Detailed Description
Ph.D. title: IMPACT OF TRANSVERSE ACOUSTIC MODES ON A LINEARLY ARRANGED TWO-PHASE FLOW SWIRLING FLAMES
Study domain: Thermoacoustic instabilities of the combustion
Thermoacoustic instabilities are an undesirable phenomena that hinder the development of new combustion system technologies.
In gas turbines and rocket engines, thermoacoustic instabilities arise very often, their amplification can diminish the energy efficiency of the system and even destroy the combustor.
