Abstract:The trapped vortex combustor (TVC) has shown promise for use in advanced aircraft engines due to its high combustion efficiency, excellent stability, compact geometry, and low pressure loss. However, the mainstream-forced entrainment phenomenon presents a significant challenge to implementing the TVC. This study conducted experimental and numerical investigations to examine the effect of different cavity-air-injection modes on mainstream-forced entrainment. The results indicate that the entrainment of mainstre… Show more
