We present an experimental study on the nonlinear dynamics of combustion instability in a lean premixed gas-turbine model combustor with a swirl-stabilized turbulent flame. Intermittent combustion oscillations switching irregularly back and forth between burst and pseudo-periodic oscillations exhibit the deterministic nature of chaos. This is clearly demonstrated by considering two nonlinear forecasting methods: an extended version (Gotoda et al., 2015, “Nonlinear Forecasting of the Generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Equation,” Int. J. Bifurcation Chaos, 25, p. 1530015) of the Sugihara and May algorithm (Sugihara and May, 1990, “Nonlinear Forecasting as a Way of Distinguishing Chaos From Measurement Error in Time Series,” Nature, 344, pp. 734–741) as a local predictor, and a generalized radial basis function (GRBF) network as a global predictor (Gotoda et al., 2012, “Characterization of Complexities in Combustion Instability in a Lean Premixed Gas-Turbine Model Combustor,” Chaos, 22, p. 043128; Gotoda et al., 2016 (unpublished)). The former enables us to extract the short-term predictability and long-term unpredictability of chaos, while the latter can produce surrogate data to test for determinism by a free-running approach. The permutation entropy based on a symbolic sequence approach is estimated for the surrogate data to test for determinism and is also used as an online detector to prevent lean blowout.
