Abstract:The demand for increased performance and lower weight of gas turbines gives rise to higher fuel-to-air ratios and a more compact design of the combustion chamber, thereby increasing the potential of fuel escaping unburnt from the combustor. Chemical reactions are likely to occur when the coolant air, used to protect the turbine blades, interacts with the unreacted fuel. Within this work, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) simulations of reacting cooling films exposed to high temperature fuel-rich exhaust g… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
