Explore a unified treatment of the dynamics of combustor systems, including acoustics, fluid mechanics, and combustion in a single rigorous text. This updated new edition features an expansion of data and experimental material, updates the coverage of flow stability, and enhanced treatment of flame dynamics. Addresses system dynamics of clean energy and propulsion systems used in low emissions systems. Synthesizing the fields of fluid mechanics and combustion into a coherent understanding of the intrinsically unsteady processes in combustors. This is a perfect reference for engineers and researchers in fluid mechanics, combustion, and clean energy.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'This well-written and well-designed book should be welcomed by all in the combustion science and engineering community, including graduate students. It will be especially useful to newer graduate students who need to learn about the breadth and depth of the field ... Highly recommended.' A. M. Strauss, Choice Connect
