Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dust Explosion Dynamics focuses on the combustion science that governs the behavior of the three primary hazards of combustible dust: dust explosions, flash fires, and smoldering. It explores the use of fundamental principles to evaluate the magnitude of combustible dust hazards in a variety of settings. Models are developed to describe dust combustion phenomena using the principles of thermodynamics, transport phenomena, and chemical kinetics. Simple, tractable models are described first and compared with experimental data, followed by more sophisticated models to help with future challenges. Dr. Ogle introduces the reader to just enough combustion science so that they may read, interpret, and use the scientific literature published on combustible dusts. This introductory text is intended to be a practical guide to the application of combustible dust models, suitable for both students and experienced engineers. It will help you to describe the dynamics of explosions and fires involving dust and evaluate their consequences which in turn will help you prevent damage to property, injury and loss of life from combustible dust accidents. Demonstrates how the fundamental principles of combustion science can be applied to understand the ignition, propagation, and extinction of dust explosions Explores fundamental concepts through model-building and comparisons with empirical data Provides detailed examples to give a thorough insight into the hazards of combustible dust as well as an introduction to relevant scientific literature

This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flows with chemical reactions can occur in various fields such as combustion, process engineering, aeronautics, the atmospheric environment and aquatics. The examples of application chosen in this book mainly concern homogeneous reactive mixtures that can occur in propellers within the fields of process engineering and combustion: – propagation of sound and monodimensional flows in nozzles, which may include disequilibria of the internal modes of the energy of molecules; – ideal chemical reactors, stabilization of their steady operation points in the homogeneous case of a perfect mixture and classical instruments of experimental and theoretical analysis such as population balances, and the distribution of residence and passage times; – laminar and turbulent flames, separating those which are premixed from those which are not and which do not exhibit the same mechanisms, but which also occur in the case of triple flames. Flows and Chemical Reactions in Homogeneous Mixtures provides information on dimensional analysis, statistical thermodynamics with coupling between internal modes and chemical reactions, the apparition and damping of fluid turbulence as well as its statistical processing, bifurcations, flames in a confined medium and diffusion. Contents 1. Flows in Nozzles. 2. Chemical Reactors. 3. Laminar and Turbulent Flames. Appendix 1. Dimensionless Numbers, Similarity. Appendix 2. Thermodynamic Functions. Appendix 3. Concepts of Turbulence. Appendix 4. Thermodynamic functions for a mixture in disequilibrium. Appendix 5. Notion of bifurcation. Appendix 6. Confined flame. Appendix 7.

This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed computational study of evaporation and combustion phenomena of unsupported and fiber-supported single and multi-component droplets is presented. The current study consists of a total of five parts: (a) study the effects of support fibers on the vaporization of single component n-heptane droplets, (b) study the effects of the Marangoni stress in single component n-heptane droplet combustion, (c) study the effects of support fibers in single component n-heptane droplet combustion, (d) study soot shell formation for single component n-heptane droplet, and (e) study multi-component n-heptane/n-hexadecane droplet evaporation and combustion. The volume-of-fluid (VOF) method is employed in the studies to capture the liquid-gas interface for transient two-phase multidimensional flows. The calculations also include variable thermo-physical properties of the liquid and gas phases as well as Marangoni stresses. In the first part of the study, a detailed numerical investigation of the effects of support fibers on the vaporization of a fiber-supported n-heptane droplet in reduced gravity is presented. This part of the study also investigated the effects of the thickness of fiber, ambient pressure, and ambient temperature on droplet evaporation. The computational results were validated with experimental results. In the second part of the droplet combustion study, a detailed numerical investigation of the Marangoni effects for fiber supported n-heptane droplet combustion in reduced gravity is presented. A 21-step n-heptane reaction mechanism proposed by Machrafi et al. (2009) is incorporated to model the combustion with both low and high temperature chemistry. Predicted burning rates and flame diameters have been validated with data from drop tower experiments. The present computational results agree well with the experimental results. The primary focus in the third part of the study is on the effects of support fibers on the droplet burning rates and flame structure. A 21-step n-heptane reaction mechanism consisting of 20 species proposed by Zhang et al. (2013) is employed to model the combustion chemistry. Computed burning rates and flame stand-off ratios are compared with the experimental results of Jackson and Avedisian (1993). Predicted flame structures are also validated with the experimental results of Mikami et al. (1994). The present computational results agree well with the experimental results. The results indicate that the support fibers can have significant impact on droplet burning rates and flame structures. In the fourth part of the study, a detailed numerical investigation of unsupported and fiber supported n-heptane droplet combustion in reduced gravity is done to explore some important information i.e., the location of pyrolysis and soot shell using a complex multidimensional computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis with a detailed reaction mechanism. A 25-step n-heptane mechanism consisting of 21 species is incorporated to model the combustion. The reaction mechanism is validated for the ignition delay time. Computed burning rates and flame stand-off ratios for both unsupported and fiber-supported droplets have been validated with prior computational and experimental studies. The computed soot shell stand-off ratios are validated by comparisons with experimental and computational results. The present computational results agree well with the experimental results.In the fifth and final part, a numerical study of vaporization and combustion of unsupported and fiber-supported multi-component n-heptane/n-hexadecane droplet is presented.
