A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. It is also known as a burner, burner can...

the combustor raises the air temperature by burning fuel. This takes place with a small pressure loss. The air velocity entering the combustor has to...

(GE) of the United States. GE produces the high-pressure compressor, combustor, and high-pressure turbine, Safran manufactures the fan, gearbox, exhaust...

engine management developments. William C. Pfefferle developed a catalytic combustor for gas turbines in the early 1970s, allowing combustion without significant...

mixed with the compressed air and burns in the combustor. The combustion products leave the combustor and expand through the turbine where power is extracted...

third-generation, twin-annular pre-swirl (TAPS) combustor instead of the previous dual annular combustor. Able to endure hotter temperatures, ceramic matrix...

combustor, can annular combustors have discrete combustion zones contained in separate liners with their own fuel injectors. Unlike the can combustor...

to combust, the turboramjet combustor may use hydrogen and oxygen, carried on the aircraft, as its fuel for the combustor. The air compressed by the compressor...

propeller. A turboprop consists of an intake, reduction gearbox, compressor, combustor, turbine, and a propelling nozzle. Air enters the intake and is compressed...

and combat. The afterburning process injects additional fuel into a combustor in the jet pipe behind (i.e., "after") the turbine, "reheating" the exhaust...

high pressure (HP) turbine. The combustor is an impingement cooled annular design. Fuel is delivered to the combustor through an unusual rotating fuel...

designated the X101). The GE1 was a basic gas generator (compressor, combustor and turbine) onto which a variety of components such as fans, afterburners...

diffuser slows down the compressor delivery air to reduce flow losses in the combustor. Slower air is also required to help stabilize the combustion flame and...

creates a ceramic mass that sticks to turbine blades, fuel nozzles, and combustors, which can quickly lead to total engine failure. Ash can also contaminate...

offshore. A DLE combustor uses the principle of lean premixed combustion, and is similar to the SAC combustor (Single Annular Combustor) with some exceptions...

engine geometry is simple and similar to scramjet, varying only in the combustor design. The engine includes a supersonic inlet followed by a combustion...

the combustor can be as high as approximately 30 MPa. The combustion feedstock consists of approximately 95% recycled CO2 by mass. The combustor provides...

HP compressor, while a 2-stage LP turbine drives the 3 stage fan. The combustor is annular. In 1998, the USAF's Lockheed U-2S fleet was fitted with a...

or other turbine engine due to the extinguishment of the flame in its combustor. The loss of flame can have a variety of causes, such as fuel starvation...
