MRes Gas Turbine Aerodynamics + PhD in Optimising Fuel Injector Performance (rich burn) combined with Novel Injector Designs

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

this would involve addressing one or more fundamental issues associated with fuel injector performance such as what drives particulate (i.e. smoke) numbers and size and, hence, what is an optimised flow field to minimise the production of harmful particulates (e.g. rapid mixing or uniformity of fuel/air etc.). This could involve the application of a number of existing experimental diagnostic techniques (e.g. soot measurements, spray diagnostics) and/or be complemented by high resolution CFD activities. Based on this understanding the project could also consider the best method of introducing fuel into the airstream, how to generate beneficial flow field features (e.g. to promote rapid fuel/air mixing if beneficial etc.) to obtain the desired performance improvements. This could also be extended to include the development of some novel injector design concepts.
