Book Numerical Simulations of Coherent Structures in a Jet Flame with a Noncircular Cross Section

Download or read book Numerical Simulations of Coherent Structures in a Jet Flame with a Noncircular Cross Section written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of coherent structures in turbulent shear flows and their importance in enhancing mixing and entrainment of chemical species has been established in recent years through extensive experimental and numerical studies. When non-premixed combustion is considered, the combustion processes could be enhanced by enhancing the fuel-air mixing and entrainment processes associated with these large coherent structures. In recent experimental studies, the entrainment characteristics of jets with different cross sections were studied, and it was determined that an elliptical jet with a certain cross-sectional shape was more efficient in entraining fluid than a circular jet with the same jet area. This increase was attributed to the complex self-induction process and the subsequent three-dimensional deformation of the elliptical vortex ring during its propagation. To understand the complex flow features associated with elliptical jets with and without heat release, a numerical study was undertaken. A new three-dimensional hybrid Navier-Stokes code was developed using spectral techniques and compact schemes to study the spatial evolution of elliptical jets. The simulation code is now ready for carrying out a detailed study of the effect of jet geometry on the mixing and combustion processes. Keywords: Direct numerical simulations; Elliptical jet flow; Compact schemes; Spectral methods; Turbulent flows; Reacting flows; Heat release; Combustion.

Book Two Dimensional Direct Numerical Simulation of Opposed Jet Hydrogen Air Flames  Transition From a Diffusion to an Edge Flame

Download or read book Two Dimensional Direct Numerical Simulation of Opposed Jet Hydrogen Air Flames Transition From a Diffusion to an Edge Flame written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an opposed-jet diffusion flame experiment, under certain conditions, after the extinction of the diffusion flame, an edge flame can be obtained. It was reported recently in a numerical and an experimental work and is responsible for an interesting transition between two distinct burning flames (multiple solutions). Motivated by our previous numerical results, obtained with simplified kinetics and some recently reported experimental data, we performed direct numerical simulations of this transition to investigate the underlying physical mechanisms. The appearance of an edge flame after the extinction of the diffusion flame, the hysteresis reported in the experiments, and the existence of multiple vigorously burning flames at identical conditions are all captured by our simulations. Our numerical results show that, in the absence of an inert coflow curtain, when the diffusion flame disk is extinguished, an edge flame forms and propagates in the mixing layer. After the formation of this edge flame, even when the applied strain rate is reduced to the initial subcritical value, the diffusion flame disk does not reappear, because the local fluid velocity still exceeds the propagation speed of the edge flame. This hysteresis has significant implications in the common submodel that utilizes the strain rate as a parameter to determine local reignition in flamelet models; it indicates that a subcritical strain rate is not a sufficient condition for the reignition of a diffusion flame. Further investigation of this phenomenon is clearly needed to refine submodels of local extinction and reignition in the flamelet models for turbulent diffusion flames. The opposed-jet configuration provides a convenient platform to analyze edge flames which are stabilized aerodynamically in a two-dimensional geometry, thus making matching two-dimensional direct numerical simulations effective.
