Study of Flame Dynamics and Flashback Mechanism in a Gas Turbine Combustor Using Simultaneous OH-PLIF and PIV
The present study aims to investigate the effects of burner geometry on flame characteristics, stabilization, and the occurrence of flashback using the Triple Annular Research Swirler (TARS). A premixing tube is placed at the exit of the burner. Simultaneous Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) of OH radicals indicating the reacting zone and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) for flow field mapp
