Subharmonic and Non-Subharmonic Pulsed Control of Thermoacoustic Instabilities: Analysis and Experiment

Thermoacoustic instabilities are a problem in modern pre-mixed combustors causing reduced performance and leading in the extreme to combustor failure from excessive pressure cycles. Much work has been done using linear controllers to eliminate these instabilities. Many experimenters in the fiel...
