Abstract: Experiments in cold and reactive conditions carried out in linear arrays of injectors indicate that the flows established by neighboring injectors exhibit alternating patterns if the distance between two injectors is too ...

Abstract: Ignition is a problem of fundamental interest with critical practical implications. While there are many studies of ignition of single injector configurations, the transient ignition of a full annular combustor has not ...

Abstract: Oscillations in fully annular systems coupled by azimuthal modes are often observed in gas turbine combustors but not well documented. One objective of the present study is to characterize this type of oscillation in a ...
