New computational methods are continuously developed in order to solve problems in different engineering fields. One of these fields is gas turbines, where the challenge is to make gas turbines more efficient and to reduce emissions that are bad for the environment. One of the main parts of a gas turbine that can be improved is the combustion chamber. In order to optimize the combustion chamber, both experimental and numerical methods are called for. An important topic is here to perform grid sensitivity studies to make sure that the model yields mesh independent results. This paper reviews some of the recent applications of the CFD in gas turbine combustor used in the power generation, aero-engines and combustion industries. The aim is to illustrate what can be done and also to identify trends and those areas where further work is needed.
