Academic Press Thermoacoustic Combustion Instability Control: Engineering Applications and Computer Codes

Product Description Thermoacoustic Combustion Instability Control: Engineering Applications and Computer Codes provides a unique opportunity for researchers, students and engineers to access recent developments from technical, theoretical, and engineering perspectives. It is a compendium of the most recent advances in theoretical and computational modelling, of the thermoacoustic instability phenomena associated with recent advances in multi-dimensional computing methods, and the current recent developments in signal-processing techniques. These include, but are not restricted to a real-time observer, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition, Galerkin expansion, empirical mode decomposition, Lattice Boltzmann method, and the associated numerical and analytical approaches. The fundamental physics of thermoacoustic instability occurs in both macro- and micro-scale combustors, and practical methods for alleviating common problems are presented with an analytical approach, to arm readers with tools to apply in their own industrial or research setting. Readers will benefit from practicing the worked examples presented in this book and the training provided on computer coding for combustion technology, to achieve useful results and simulations to advance their knowledge and research further.
