We experimentally investigate the dynamic behavior of combustion instability in a lean premixed gas-turbine combustor from viewpoint nonlinear dynamics. A time series analysis combination with surrogate data method clearly reveals that as equivalence ratio increases, undergoes significant transition stochastic fluctuation to periodic oscillation through low-dimensional chaotic oscillation. also show forecasting is useful for predicting short-term combustor, which has not been addressed...
