Advances in combustor technologies are driving aircraft gas turbine engines to operate at higher pressures,
temperatures and equivalence ratios. A viable approach for protecting the combustor from the
high-temperature environment is to inject air through the holes drilled on the surfaces. However, it is
possible that the air intended for...

Reducing the weight and decreasing pressure losses of aviation gas turbine engines improves the thrust-to-weight ratio and improves efficiency. In ultra-compact combustors (UCC), engine length is reduced and pressure losses are decreased by merging a combustor with adjacent components using a systems engineering approach. High-pressure turbine inlet vanes can be...
