Due to turbulence of incoming air and/or fuel mass flow
perturbations the heat release process will be periodic (Unsteady)
so the pressure inside the combustor will fluctuate due to unsteady
heat release rate causing broadband noise this noise will match
with one or more of the acoustic modes (frequencies) of the
combustor, then the humming will occur and if the humming reflected
from the combustor boundaries to the flame again it will increase
the root source of the problem (flow perturbations) and
amplification of the oscillation will take place causing structural
vibrations to the combustor walls (acceleration).
