UCDS for Augmentor Damping
SBC: GLOYER-TAYLOR LABORATORIES INC Topic: AF151062ABSTRACT: Combustion instability (aka thermoacoustic instability) is a significant issue in propulsion systems including augmentors. Oscillations can increase heat transfer to walls 10 fold and cause vibration damage to the propulsion system and the surrounding system. This damage can occur very rapidly. Combustion instability (CI) is challenging to design for due to the complex interactions betw ...
