1. The combustor for a gas turbine engine is shown below. a) Describe in detail the function and working of a combust or for a gas turbine engine, using drawings

and figures to illustrate your points. (400 word maximum). b) Describe the design challenges (400 words maximum).associated with a combustor, covering constraints of (i)How much thermal energy is required (ii)Temperature constraints (iii)Pressure constraints (iv)Mass flux constraint When a hydrogen/hydrocarbon mixture is used as the fuel, new challenges are introduced. Discuss the new challenges (in under 400 words), specifically the following points (i)Control of combustion (ii)Corrosion (ii)Describe these challenges and problems, and exapline strategies to mitigate their effect.
