Effect of dilution in an inter-turbine Flameless combustor

Alternatives to combustion in aircraft engines are not expected to become feasible in the decades to come. As the aviation traffic increases and regulations become more stringent, reduction in pollutant emissions are needed. The Flameless Combustion (FC) regime has been one of the promising candidates to achieve...

CFD and Chemical Reactor Network approaches to model an inter-turbine burner

The Flameless Combustion (FC) regime is promising to the attainment of lower emissions in gas turbine engines. The well-distributed reactions, with low peak temperatures present in the regime result in lower emissions and acoustic oscillations. However, the attainment of the FC regime on gas turbine engines has...
