Abstract

See full text

A method of optimising the performance of combustion equipment of a gas turbine engine includes providing a fuel flow into the combustion equipment via a plurality of fuel injectors circumferentially disposed about a principal rotational axis at a plurality of injector positions; determining a plurality of temperatures of combustion gases at a plurality of circumferential positions downstream of the combustion equipment using a plurality of temperature measurement devices; ranking the plurality of circumferential positions based on the plurality of temperatures of the combustion gases determined using the plurality of temperature measurement devices; and repositioning at least some of the plurality of fuel injectors between the plurality of injector positions based at least on the ranking of the circumferential positions.
