The paper is mainly concerned with how the gas-turbine designer can choose the best design of liquid or gaseous fuel combustion chamber for his purpose. In the method proposed, combustion chamber test data are expressed in a way which gives the most general information about the design, by introducing dimensionless performance criteria. These criteria are then plotted in ways which enable the various chamber designs to be compared. The treatment deals implicitly with the conditions which satisfactory model tests must fulfil. An idealized model of a gas-turbine combustion chamber is introduced in the light of which the effects of changes in overall fuel/air ratio can be explained more satisfactorily than when conditions in the flame-tube are supposed homogeneous.
