Summary: | The paper presents three-dimensional numerical
simulations of combustion in the GTM-140 miniature
turbine engine. The main aim of the work is to understand
the processes occurring in the combustion chamber. The
coupling of chemical kinetics, thermochemistry, transport
of mass, energy and momentum, and fluid mechanics is a
challenge for the engineers. The knowledge of these issues
is essential to achieve a high performance product. The k-
ϵ (RANS) Turbulence Model and Non-Premixed Model for
the combustion was used. The particles of fluid droplets
were described by the Discrete Phase Model. |
