Stabilization and Dynamic of Premixed Swirling Flames

Prevaporized, Stratified, Partially, and Fully Premixed Regimes

Stabilization and Dynamic of Premixed Swirling Flames focuses on swirling flames in various premixed modes (prevaporized, stratified, partially, and fully premixed) for the combustor and the development and design of current and future swirl-stabilized combustion systems. This includes predicting capabilities, modelling of turbulent combustion, , and a complete overview of the topic of stabilization and combustion dynamics of these flames in aeroengines. The book also discusses the effects of the operating envelope on upstream fresh gases and the subsequent impact on flame speed/combustion/mixing. It presents a theoretical framework for flame stabilization. The last chapter covers the design of a fully premixed injector for future jet engine applications.

Key Features

• Provides a comprehensive review of stabilization mechanisms for prevaporized, stratified, partially and fully premixed flames
• Features a complete view of the challenges at the intersection of swirling flame/combustors, requirements and physics of fluids at work enabling the development of future gas turbine engine combustor
• Describes the phenomenology of premixed combustion, driving mechanisms of combustion instability, and various investigation approaches and includes the presentation of the very latest numerical results and analyses of flashback, lean blowout and combustion instabilities
