In can-annular combustors, each flame burns in an essentially isolated manner in a can. The cans, however, are coupled at the downstream end by a small annular manifold that connec ...

Combustion in gas turbines and aeroengines takes place in combustion chambers that have a nominal (discrete) rotational symmetry. The presence of symmetries induces some thermoacou ...

Thermoacoustic instabilities can be predicted by means of linear stability theory. When one or more modes are unstable, however, it is the nonlinear response of the heat released b ...
