La combustion des gaz brûlés permet de conclure à la bonne ou mauvaise qualité de la combustion [...] Lors d’une combustion complète les gaz brûlés ne contiennent que du CO2, O2 et N2 [...] Lors d’une combustion incomplète qui a lieu généralement par manque d’air, mauvais mélange combustible-air ou encore sous-refroidissement des gaz brûlés, les fumées contiennent des particules imbrûlées en particulier de l’oxyde de carbone [...], de l’hydrogène [...] et des suies. 4, record 1, French, - combustion%20compl%C3%A8te

La combustion des carburants est un phénomène chimique dont le résultat est caractérisé par la fourniture d’une certaine énergie et de résidus de combustion. Valeur énergétique : l’énergie fournie dépend de la masse du carburant utilisée (~10.000 kcal/kg). Résidus : les rejets issus de la combustion doivent être étudiés dans 2 considérations, les rejets issus d’une combustion idéale et ceux résultant d’une carburation incomplète. 2, record 1, French, - combustion%20compl%C3%A8te

Le rendement thermique des turbines à gaz se trouve aujourd’hui conditionné par la tenue mécanique des aubages, qui impose une limite supérieure à la température des gaz à l'entrée de la turbine. On atteint actuellement des températures de l'ordre de 1600 K, mais l'objectif annoncé d’ambitieux programmes de recherches tels que l'Integrated High Performance Turbine Engine Technology(IHPTET) est d’opérer à la température maximale, soit la température correspondant à la combustion stœchiométrique(environ 2400 K). 5, record 1, French, - combustion%20compl%C3%A8te

Variable cycle is not simply a question of varying the by-pass ratio. The key achievement would be to control the power, speed and temperature of an engine independently and the most difficult element is to modify turbine operation, perhaps with controllable turbine guide vanes. 1, record 2, English, - variable%20cycle

Le cycle variable quant à lui, ne se limite pas simplement à faire varier le taux de dilution. L'objectif véritable est de commander séparément la puissance, la vitesse de rotation et la température de fonctionnement d’un moteur, et la difficulté essentielle est d’agir sur le fonctionnement de la turbine. 1, record 2, French, - cycle%20variable
