Abstract
A method for detecting flameholding in at least one combustor of a turbine engine includes measuring dynamic pressure data of the at least one combustor of the turbine engine; converting the dynamic pressure data to frequency-domain spectral energy amplitudes for the dynamic pressure data; and comparing the spectral energy amplitudes against a dynamic amplitude threshold value to determine whether the amplitudes exceed the threshold minimum amplitude value, wherein exceeding the dynamic amplitude threshold indicates a flameholding occurrence.
