Effects of thermal stressing on the turbulent flame speed of jet fuel

Creator:: Alkhalifa, Ammar M.
Abstract:: Gas turbine engines for propulsion applications can use fuel as a coolant, exposing the fuel to high temperatures well within the ranges associated with thermal decomposition. Species produced as a result of these processes have been shown to correlate with changes in the combustion performance of the fuels. In this...
