The two-way interaction between the unsteady flame heat release rate and acoustic waves can lead to combustion instability within combustors. To understand and quantify the flame response to oncoming acoustic waves, previous studies have…
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…
Operating high-intensity discharge lamps in the high frequency range (20-300 kHz) provides energy-saving and cost reduction potentials. However, commercially available lamp drivers do not make use of this operating strategy because light…
Superfluid helium, the inviscid low-temperature phase of liquid \4He, enables investigation of flows with reduced dimensionality since, due to the vanishing viscosity, sub-micron flow channels can be constructed. In such strongly confined…
Premixed turbulent flames, encountered in power generation and propulsion engines, are an archetype of a randomly advected, self-propagating surface. While such a flame is known to exhibit large-scale intermittent flapping, the possible…
In this work, we aim to establish a detailed description of the physical mechanisms of intrinsic thermoacoustic modes and their interplay with duct acoustic modes. The biglobal linear stability analysis of an anchored laminar flame in an…
Reactive flows in confined spaces involve complex flame-wall interaction (FWI). This work aims to gain more insights into the physics of the premixed near-wall flame and the wall heat flux as an important engineering relevant quantity. Two…
The turbulence statistics of the intermittent region in a supersonic turbulent boundary layer are studied by direct numerical simulation. Recently, Kwon et al. (2016) have shown that this intermittent behavior, consisting of the coexistence…
Fully compressible numerical simulations of two-dimensional laminar lean hydrogen-air premixed flames have been performed, with the flame front subjected to acoustic forcing through the specification of a monopole-type sound source at the…
This paper uses a reactive flow large eddy simulation (LES) and decomposition techniques to study combustion instabilities in a methane-oxygen combustor. This work examines two case scenarios to elucidate the significance of…
In this article, we examine the flame, flow, and acoustic coupling of Intrinsic ThermoAcoustic (ITA) driven combustion instability using a high-shear swirl injector in a model combustor. The combustor is operated using pure methane and…
A sudden transition to a state of high amplitude limit cycle oscillations is catastrophic in a thermo-fluid system. Conventionally, upon varying the control parameter, a sudden transition is observed as an abrupt jump in the amplitude of…
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…
Global instabilities in swirling flows can significantly alter the flame and flow dynamics of swirl-stabilized flames, such as those in modern power generation gas turbine engines. In this study, we characterize the interaction between the…
We report the occurrence of amplitude death (AD) of limit cycle oscillations in a bluff body stabilized turbulent combustor through delayed acoustic self-feedback. Such feedback control is achieved by coupling the acoustic field of the…
Hydrodynamic modes in the turbulent mixing layer over a cavity can constructively interact with the acoustic modes of that cavity and lead to aeroacoustic instabilities. The resulting limit cycles can cause undesired structural vibrations…
The relationship between a decaying plasma turbulence and proton fire hose instabilities in a slowly expanding plasma is investigated using three-dimensional (3-D) hybrid expanding box simulations. We impose an initial ambient magnetic…
We predict the development and propagation of the fluctuations in a perturbed ideally-expanded air jet. A non-propagating harmonic perturbation in the density, axial velocity, and pressure is introduced at the inflow with different…
Hydrogen combustion systems operated under fuel-lean conditions offer great potential for low emissions. However, these operating conditions are also susceptible to intrinsic thermodiffusive combustion instabilities. Even though technical…
In order to explore the influence of combustion-induced thermal expansion on turbulence, a new research method is introduced. The method consists in jointly applying Helmholtz-Hodge decomposition and conditioned structure functions to…
