    摘要: A method comprising performing simulations to determine energy transfer between the bulk fluid motion of gases through a combustion chamber and resonant acoustic modes of the combustion chamber using a simulation model. The method also comprises configuring one or more combustion chamber parameters for the simulation model to shape the resonant acoustic modes to diminish coupling between the resonant acoustic modes and driving mechanisms at a head portion of the combustion chamber and to enhance coupling between the resonant acoustic modes and damping mechanisms at an aft portion of the combustion chamber. The method further comprises determining whether the combustion chamber meets a predetermined performance level in response to determining that the combustion chamber meets a predetermined combustion stability level.
