To reduce NO x emissions in aero-engine combustion chambers， lean premixed pre-vaporized combustion technology is widely used， leading to more frequent combustion instability. The energy of aero-engine combustion instability comes from the combustion of the propellant， with thermoacoustic instability being the main form of combustion instability. To suppress the thermoacoustic instability， the influence of flame combustion response on the system is firstly considered based on the Culick model， and the mathematical model of thermoacoustic instability with state delay is derived. Based on the derived model， the influence of the convection time from fuel injection to heat release from combustion on the stability of the thermoacoustic system is then explored， a back-stepping active control method with prescribed performance designed， and the upper bound of the convection time obtained under the premise of ensuring the prescribed performance of the system. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results verify that the active control method can make the pressure oscillation of the thermoacoustic instability system converge asymptotically and satisfy the prescribed performance with time-delay robustness.
