Abstract: We present a two-step optimization (TSO) framework, which uses the pressure data of an unstable combustion process to estimate the complex-valued flame transfer function (FTF). From the pressure time series, we obtain the ...

Abstract: Flame flashback (FB) is a major concern in hydrogen-fired gas turbines. In order to determine the flashback propensity of a hydrogen burner, several burner design tests at different operating points and fuel blends are ...

Abstract: The conventional iterative optimization of turbine blades using computer-aided engineering simulations is resource-intensive, with high costs and time demands, as well as significant challenges in computational requirements ...

Abstract: Prediction of successful ignition is a challenging task that requires knowledge of the local thermochemical state in highly turbulent flow conditions. For typical industrial gas turbine (GTs) conditions operated on active ...

Abstract: The thermoacoustic behavior of a combustion system can be determined numerically via acoustic tools such as Helmholtz solvers or network models coupled with a model for the flame dynamic response. Within such a framework, ...
