CFD Simulation of a Gas Turbine Combustor

The work to be conducted in this intemship consists of the transient numerical modeling of a

combustion device using commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes. Validation

of the various sub-models is required and once the final model is complete various design

changes can be researched. The model will allow for variations in geometry, spray and

ignttion characteristics and timing of the combustion device. The work will coincide with a

current new engine project being carried out by the partner organization. The academic

supervi.ors have a wealth of knowledge with combustion and fluid modeling and will serve to

support the intem along with the partner organization in the completion of several tasks. In

completion the partner organization will have gained a useful combustion model and design

insights while the intem will have gained valuable research experience.
