Abstract

The HETD (Hot End Technologies Directorate) of GTRE (Gas Turbine Research Establishment) has the mandate of design, development and delivery of airworthy combustor and afterburner modules for a military aero gas turbine engine. In order to meet the mandate, the directorate takes the overall responsibility of design to manufacture of the combustion systems. Three-dimensional CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analyses played a vital role in arriving at the final configuration meeting the specific design targets. This paper focuses on the utilization of the CFD code ‘Fluent’ in the successful realization of the main combustor of an aero gas turbine engine.
