Informationen zum Autor Timothy C. Lieuwen is an Associate Professor in Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. Prof. Lieuwen also serves as Associate Editor of the Journal of Propulsion and Power. Vigor Yang is Distinguished Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. He received his Ph.D. in jet propulsion from the California Institute of Technology. Professor Yang also serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Propulsion and Power and is the author/editor for several books on liquid and solid rocket propulsion. Klappentext This book offers gas turbine users and manufacturers a valuable resource to help them sort through issues associated with combustion instabilities. In the last ten years! substantial efforts have been made in the industrial! governmental! and academic communities to understand the unique issues associated with combustion instabilities in low-emission gas turbines. The objective of this book is to compile these results into a series of chapters that address the various facets of the problem. The Case Studies section speaks to specific manufacturer and user experiences with combustion instabilities in the development stage and in fielded turbine engines. The book then goes on to examine The Fundamental Mechanisms! The Combustor Modeling! and Control Approaches.
