Study of abnormal combustion oscillations in gas fired appliances

The thesis work discusses abnormal combustion noise in gas-fired appliances. An experimental model was made to provide insight into the causes of abnormal combustion noises. The experimental model was modelled mathematically considering it as a feedback loop system. Finally a stability plot was made to find out at what frequencies the system is stable
