TL;DR: In this article, a method able to predict the onset of thermoacoustic instabilities is examined and applied to a test rig in order to validate the proposed methodology, and the experimental test is designed to evaluate the propensity to thermo acoustic instabilities of full scale Ansaldo Energia burners used in gas turbine systems for production of energy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of a Helmholtz resonator on the low frequency acoustic pressure in the case of an annular combustor and found that the peak of acoustic pressure characterizing the combustion chamber splits into two peaks of lower magnitude when the resonators are applied and the peak frequencies are correlated to the overall volume of resonant cavities.

TL;DR: In this article , a strut-stabilized model scramjet is performed with dynamic thickened flame combustion model, and an efficiency function accounting for both, wrinkling loss due to flame thickening and turbulence/flame interaction is derived.

TL;DR: In this paper, an acoustic analysis of self-sustained thermo-acoustic pressure oscillations that occur in a test rig equipped with a full scale lean premixed burner is presented.
