Heat Transfer and Flow Measurements in Gas Turbine Engine Can and Annular Combustors

A comparison study between axial and radial swirler performance in a gas turbine can combustor was conducted by investigating the correlation between combustor flow field geometry and convective heat transfer at cold flow conditions for Reynolds numbers of 50,000 and 80,000. Flow velocities were mea...
