Design and Optimization of Combustion Chamber for Gas Turbine Engine

Gas turbine engines are widely used in aviation, power generation, and marine propulsion due to their efficiency and reliability. The combustion chamber, crucial to engine performance, involves various components such as fuel injection, ignition, and cooling systems. This study presents the design and optimization of a cost-effective combustion chamber model aimed at improving efficiency and power-to-fuel ratio. Numerical simulations were conducted to analyze the swirler design, enhancing combustion efficiency, air-fuel mixing, and emission reduction. The research compares different combustion chamber types based on cost, availability, and fabrication time. The fabrication process and materials used, along with safety and environmental measures, are discussed. Future work will focus on experimental validation and further development of low-emission designs to address challenges in fuel consumption and emissions.
