Comparative study of combustion and thermal performance of a meso-scale combustor under co- and counter-rotating fuel and oxidizer swirling flows for micro power generators.

Direct energy conversion systems, such as thermophotovoltaic and thermoelectric generators, have received increasing attention in micro power generation. Micro and meso-scale combustors are one of the most core components in these systems. So, developing combustion stabilization technologies for micro or meso-scale combustors is of great importance.
