that the stability limits are very narrow. This means that when the engine control system attempts to
compensate for combustion inefficiency by supplying more fuel to the combustor, this extra fuel is liable to
cause a ‘rich extinction’ of the flame. Thus, an important design requirement for an aircraft combustor is
that it is sized large enough toensure an adequate level of combustion efficiency during engine restart at the
highest altitude at which relight capability is guaranteed.
