This study experimentally explores the effects of external forcing on a turbulent, liquid-fuelled, swirl-stabilized gas turbine combustor operating at approximately 1 MPa. The dynamics and coupling between hydrodynamics, flame dynamics, and acoustics were compared for different forcing amplitudes while keeping the forcing frequency fixed. It was found that the pressure fluctuations followed the phase-locking route to synchronization, contrary to expectations from synchronization theory.
The effects of external forcing on a turbulent, liquid-fuelled, swirl-stabilized gas turbine combustor op-erating at a pressure of approximately 1 MPa are explored experimentally. In particular, the dynamics and coupling between the hydrodynamics, flame dynamics and acoustics are compared for various forcing am-plitudes at a fixed forcing frequency ff. The hydrodynamics were characterized via laser Mie scattering from droplets in the fuel spray, while the flame dynamics were qualitatively measured using chemiluminescence (CL) emissions in the 312 & PLUSMN; 12.5 nm wavelength range, both at 10 kHz. The dynamics at the frequencies of interest were extracted using spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD). In the unforced case, the spray and CL oscillations exhibited similar dynamics, dominated by oscillations at frequency f 0 , whereas the pressure fluctuations were predominantly at fP. As the forcing amplitude was increased from zero, the spray and CL exhibited changes in their power spectra characteristic of the suppression route to synchronization. The pressure fluctuations, however, were observed to follow the phase-locking route to synchronization. In contrast with expectations from synchronization theory, the amplitude of the pressure fluctuations increased significantly not only after lock-on, but also as the frequency detuning with ff decreased. It is shown that this increase in amplitude is not due to intermittency in the frequency of the pressure oscillations. The si-multaneous occurrence of phase-locking and suppression illustrates the rich variety of dynamics that can occur in practical combustor systems. In addition, the amplification of the pressure oscillations based on the frequency detuning with the forcing suggests that classical reasoning based on the Rayleigh Index may not be sufficient to understand the high amplitude behaviour of multimodal systems. & COPY; 2022 The Combustion Institute.
