4. Conclusions
- (1)
- The TDLAS system, at an acquisition frequency of 1 kHz, exhibits a certain dynamic collection capacity, capable of reflecting some detailed temperature variations. In contrast, the data collected at 10 kHz can reveal more intricate temperature changes, with enhanced continuity and noise resistance. The combined utilization of 10 kHz and 1 kHz frequencies enables a more comprehensive reflection of the dynamic temperature characteristics of the temperature field.
- (2)
- The outlet temperature change of the centrally staged combustor is affected by multiple combustion parameters. Under the condition that the fuel–air ratio and the staging ratio remain the same, increasing the airflow rate will enhance the degree of fuel atomization, make the combustion more uniform, and increase the outlet temperature, while the temperature oscillation phenomenon is significantly enhanced. Under the condition that the airflow and the fuel–air ratio remain unchanged, in order to alleviate the high-frequency temperature oscillations, the staging ratio of the centrally staged combustor can be increased, and at the same time, the average temperature at the outlet of the combustion chamber will be slightly increased. This provides a data basis for adjusting the engine thrust and combustion efficiency.
