Abstract

For predicting eigenfrequency and initial growth rate of combustion instabilities in lean premixed gas turbine combustor, linear thermoacoustic analysis model was developed in the current paper. A model combustor was selected for the model validation, which has well-defined inlet and outlet conditions and a relatively simple geometry, compared to the combustor in the previous works. Analytical linear equations for thermoacoustic waves were derived for a given combustion system. It was found that the prediction results showed a good agreement with the measurements, even though there was underestimation for instability frequencies. This underestimation was more obvious for a longer flame (i.e. wider temperature distribution) than for a shorter flame.

가스터빈 희박 예혼합 연소기에서 발생하는 연소 불안정의 고유 주파수 및 초기 성장률의 예측을 위하여 선형 열음향 해석 모델이 소개되었다. 모델 검증을 위하여 입출구 조건이 잘 정의되고, 상대적으로 이전 연구 결과에서 적용된 연소기에 비하여 구조가 간단한 모델 연소기가 선정되었다. 정의된 연소기에서 음향 해석을 위한 선형 관계식이 유도되었고, 이를 통하여 선형 안정성 해석 방안이 제시되었다. 해석 결과 연소 불안정의 특성에 대한 전체적인 변화 경향은 성공적으로 예측하였으나, 주파수의 절대값에 있어서는 실제 실험 결과보다 다소 작은 값을 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 주파수의 예측 오차는 짧은 화염보다는 긴 화염에서 더욱 두드러지는 것으로 나타났다.
