        abstract = {Flame stabilization means stabilizing the flame i.e., proper mixing of fuel and oxidizer. It is a critical aspect in the design and operation of combustion systems, particularly in jet engines, afterburners, and industrial burners. This study explores the concept of flame stabilization using a Tri-Vane Flame Stabilizer, a geometric device designed to generate controlled flow recirculation zones that support continuous combustion. The Tri-Vane structure typically comprises three angled vanes arranged in a triangular configuration, mounted within the flow path of the combustion chamber. These vanes induce swirl and create localized low-velocity zones, allowing the flame to anchor effectively and resist blowout under high-speed flow conditions.
The research investigates the aerodynamic behavior, flow patterns, and temperature distribution around the stabilizer using both experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods. Results indicate that the Tri-Vane stabilizer significantly improves flame holding characteristics by enhancing turbulence and maintaining a stable flame front, even under varying inlet velocities. Its compact design and low pressure loss make it a promising solution for modern combustion systems requiring high stability and efficiency.},
