Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations on gas turbine combustion chamber

On a gas turbine engine, the combustion chamber is one of the most important parts to complete the cycle of Brayton. Combustion chamber is used to burn fuel-air mixture to produce energy. This energy are then supply to enter the nozzle and then into the turbine. It is of interest to examine briefly...
