Abstract
Combustion instabilities are prevalent in a variety of systems including gas turbine engines. In this regard, the introduction of active control opens the potential for new paradigms in combustor design and optimization. However, the limited ability to detect the onset of instabilities can lead to difficulty in implementing active control approaches. Machine learning—specifically deep learning tools—may be employed to detect instabilities from various measurement and sensor data related to the combustion process. Deep learning models have recently shown remarkable potential for extraction of meaningful features from data without the need to hand-craft. As one of the early studies of deep learning for combustion instability detection, we extract sequential image frames from high-speed images of a premixed, bluff-body stabilized flame which exhibits varying levels of combustion instability. Using an efficient detection framework (based on 2-D convolutional neural networks) to detect the growth of an unstable mode can lead to effective control schemes. In addition, we apply a second deep learning framework to capture the temporal correlations in the data with corresponding learned spatial features.
