Nonlinear self-excited thermoacoustic oscillations of a ducted premixed flame: bifurcations and routes to chaos

K Kashinath, IC Waugh, MP Juniper - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2014 - cambridge.org
Thermoacoustic systems can oscillate self-excitedly, and often non-periodically, owing to
coupling between unsteady heat release and acoustic waves. We study a slot-stabilized two …
