Thermoacoustic instabilities observed in turbulent combustion systems have disastrous consequences and are notoriously challenging to model, predict and control. Here, we introduce a mean-field model of thermoacoustic transitions, where the…
We present a phenomenological reduced-order model to capture the transition to thermoacoustic instability in turbulent combustors. The model is based on the framework of synchronization and considers the acoustic field and the unsteady heat…
We investigate flame-acoustic interactions in a turbulent combustor during the state of intermittency before the onset of thermoacoustic instability using complex networks. Experiments are performed in a turbulent bluff-body stabilized dump…
Thermoacoustic systems are complex systems where the interactions between the hydrodynamic, acoustic and heat release rate fluctuations lead to diverse dynamics such as chaos, intermittency, and ordered dynamics. Such complex interactions…
We, herein, present a new model based on the framework of synchronization to describe a thermoacoustic system and capture the multiple bifurcations that such a system undergoes. Instead of applying flame describing function to depict the…
Open-loop control is known to be an effective strategy for controlling self-excited thermoacoustic oscillations in turbulent combustors. In this study, we investigate the suppression of thermoacoustic instability in a lean premixed,…
Turbulent reacting flows confined to ducts are plagued by thermoacoustic instability, a state in which a positive feedback between flow, flame and acoustic perturbations leads to the emergence of catastrophically high-amplitude oscillatory…
In reacting flow systems, thermoacoustic instability characterized by high amplitude pressure fluctuations, is driven by a positive coupling between the unsteady heat release rate and the acoustic field of the combustor. When the underlying…
In this experimental study on a laboratory-scale turbulent annular combustor with sixteen swirl-stabilized burners, we study the flame-flame and flame-acoustic interactions during different dynamical states associated with the longitudinal…
In this paper, we present a framework to study the synchronization of flow velocity with acoustic pressure and heat-release rate in technically-premixed swirl flames. The framework uses the extended proper orthogonal decomposition to…
This study examines the dynamics of vortical interactions and their implications for mitigating thermoacoustic instability in a turbulent combustor. The regions of intense vortical interactions are identified as vortical communities in the…
Rocket engine combustors are prone to transverse instabilities that are characterized by large amplitude high frequency oscillations in the acoustic pressure and the heat release rate. We study the coupled interaction between the acoustic…
The synchronization phenomena in thermoacoustic systems leading to oscillatory instability can effectively be modeled using Kuramoto oscillators. Such models consider the nonlinear response of flame as an ensemble of Kuramoto phase…
Spiky oscillations are characterized by slow-fast dynamics and are observed in excitable media such as neuronal membranes and cardiac cells. In a turbulent reactive flow system, we observe that the heat release rate exhibits self-sustained…
The occurrence of abrupt dynamical transitions in the macroscopic state of a system has received growing attention. We present experimental evidence for abrupt transition via explosive synchronization in a real-world complex system, namely…
The phenomenon of frequency and phase synchronization in stochastic systems requires a revision of concepts originally phrased in the context of purely deterministic systems. Various definitions of an instantaneous phase are presented and…
This experimental study investigates the dynamical transition from stable operation to thermoacoustic instability in a turbulent bluff-body stabilized dump combustor. We conduct experiments to characterize the dynamical transition utilizing…
In a quasi-1D thermal convective system consisting of a large array of nonlinearly coupled oscillators, clustering is the way to achieve a regime of mostly antiphase synchronized oscillators. This regime is characterized by a spatiotemporal…
We report experimental evidence of the route to spatiotemporal chaos in a large 1D-array of hotspots in a thermoconvective system. Increasing the driving force, a stationary cellular pattern becomes unstable towards a mixed pattern of…
In an acoustic cavity with a heat source, such as a flame in a gas turbine, the thermal energy of the heat source can be converted into acoustic energy, which may generate a loud oscillation. If uncontrolled, these nonlinear acoustic…
