This book contains selected papers prepared for the NATO Advanced
Study Institute on "Unsteady Combustion," which was held in Praia
da Granja, Portugal, 6-17 September 1993. Approximately 100
delegates from 14 countries attended. The Institute was the most
recent in a series beginning with "Instrumentation for Combustion
and Flow in Engines," held in Vimeiro, Portugal 1987 and followed
by "Combusting Flow Diagnostics" conducted in Montechoro, Portugal
in 1990. Together, these three Institutes have covered a wide range
of experimental and theoretical topics arising in the research and
development of combustion systems with particular emphasis on
gas-turbine combustors and internal combustion engines. The
emphasis has evolved roughly from instrumentation and experimental
techniques to the mixture of experiment, theory and computational
work covered in the present volume. As the title of this book
implies, the chief aim of this Institute was to provide a broad
sampling of problems arising with time-dependent behaviour in
combustors. In fact, of course, that intention encompasses
practically all possibilities, for "steady" combustion hardly
exists if one looks sufficiently closely at the processes in a
combustion chamber. The point really is that, apart from the
excellent paper by Bahr (Chapter 10) discussing the technology of
combustors for aircraft gas turbines, little attention is directed
to matters of steady performance. The volume is divided into three
parts devoted to the subjects of combustion-induced oscillations;
combustion in internal combustion engines; and experimental
techniques and modelling.
