The subject of this work is the analysis of an independent heater combustion chamber. The main goals are the analysis of the current state and modification of the combustion chamber design, while the CFD methods are applied. The standard methodology considering the model and grid preparation and the ANSYS Fluent solver setup were provided to obtain the velocity, thermal and species concentration fields as results. These results were used for the analysis of the flame stability as well as the heat load of the individual component of the combustion chamber. The initial results leads to the identification of areas for possible improvement due to the uneven thermal fields and high thermal stress. Then, several modifications were designed and tested. Finally, the results for modified design were analysed to evaluate the variant suitable for future experimental testing.
