Thermoacoustic Combustion Instability Control: Engineering Applications and Computer Codes provides a unique opportunity for researchers, students and engineers to access recent developments from technical, theoretical and engineering perspectives. The book is a compendium of the most recent advances in theoretical and computational modeling and the thermoacoustic instability phenomena associated with multi-dimensional computing methods and recent developments in signal-processing techniques. These include, but are not restricted to a real-time observer, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition, Galerkin expansion, empirical mode decomposition, the Lattice Boltzmann method, and associated numerical and analytical approaches. The fundamental physics of thermoacoustic instability occurs in both macro- and micro-scale combustors. Practical methods for alleviating common problems are presented in the book with an analytical approach to arm readers with the tools they need to apply in their own industrial or research setting. Readers will benefit from practicing the worked examples and the training provided on computer coding for combustion technology to achieve useful results and simulations that advance their knowledge and research. - Focuses on applications of theoretical and numerical modes with computer codes relevant to combustion technology - Includes the most recent modeling and analytical developments motivated by empirical experimental observations in a highly visual way - Provides self-contained chapters that include a comprehensive, introductory section that ensures any readers new to this topic are equipped with required technical terms

This book offers gas turbine users and manufacturers a valuable resource to help them sort through issues associated with combustion instabilities. In the last ten years, substantial efforts have been made in the industrial, governmental, and academic communities to understand the unique issues associated with combustion instabilities in low-emission gas turbines. The objective of this book is to compile these results into a series of chapters that address the various facets of the problem. The Case Studies section speaks to specific manufacturer and user experiences with combustion instabilities in the development stage and in fielded turbine engines. The book then goes on to examine The Fundamental Mechanisms, The Combustor Modeling, and Control Approaches.

The symposium dealt with Gas Turbine Engine Combustion, Emissions and Alternative Fuels. Forty-six papers and a Keynote Address elucidated the role of the combustion process as a crucial factor of engine performance and operability under various conditions including non-standard, new fuels and environmental effects of civil and military interest. There were 12 Sessions covering the following topics (some in 2 sessions): (1) Gas Turbines in Land, Sea and Air Applications; (2) Low-Emission Combustors; (3) Combustion Modelling; (4) Optical Measurements; (5) Emissions; (6) Combustor Design; (7) Ignition Processes; (8) Active Combustion Control; and (9) Alternative Fuels.
