A combustor assembly including a combustor liner defining therein a combustion chamber for the downstream flow of a main fluid. At least two annular trapped vortex cavities are located on the combustor liner and staged axially spaced apart. A cavity opening is located at a radially inner end of each of the at least two annular trapped vortex cavities spaced apart from a radially outer wall and extending between an aft wall and a forward wall of each cavity. A plurality of injectors are configured tangentially relative to the circular radially outer wall to provide for an injection of air and fuel to form an annular rotating trapped vortex of a fuel and air mixture within a respective annular trapped vortex cavity. The annular rotating trapped vortex of the fuel and air mixture at the cavity openings is substantially perpendicular to the downstream flow of the main fluid. A gas turbine engine including the combustor assembly is disclosed.

A computer-implemented method for multi-mode operation of a combustion system, a combustion system, and a heat engine are provided. The method includes initializing combustion of a fuel/oxidizer mixture, determining whether conditions at the combustion system meet or exceed a first threshold operating parameter, transitioning to detonation combustion of the fuel/oxidizer mixture if conditions at the combustion system meet or exceed the first threshold operating parameter, and maintaining or increasing fuel flow through a deflagrative fuel circuit if conditions at the combustion system do not meet or exceed the first threshold operating parameter.
