Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A work on turbulent premixed combustion is important because of increased concern about the environmental impact of combustion and the search for new combustion concepts and technologies. An improved understanding of lean fuel turbulent premixed flames must play a central role in the fundamental science of these new concepts. Lean premixed flames have the potential to offer ultra-low emission levels, but they are notoriously susceptible to combustion oscillations. Thus, sophisticated control measures are inevitably required. The editors' intent is to set out the modeling aspects in the field of turbulent premixed combustion. Good progress has been made on this topic, and this cohesive volume contains contributions from international experts on various subtopics of the lean premixed flame problem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thermoacoustic Combustion Instability Control: Engineering Applications and Computer Codes provides a unique opportunity for researchers, students and engineers to access recent developments from technical, theoretical and engineering perspectives. The book is a compendium of the most recent advances in theoretical and computational modeling and the thermoacoustic instability phenomena associated with multi-dimensional computing methods and recent developments in signal-processing techniques. These include, but are not restricted to a real-time observer, proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition, Galerkin expansion, empirical mode decomposition, the Lattice Boltzmann method, and associated numerical and analytical approaches. The fundamental physics of thermoacoustic instability occurs in both macro- and micro-scale combustors. Practical methods for alleviating common problems are presented in the book with an analytical approach to arm readers with the tools they need to apply in their own industrial or research setting. Readers will benefit from practicing the worked examples and the training provided on computer coding for combustion technology to achieve useful results and simulations that advance their knowledge and research. Focuses on applications of theoretical and numerical modes with computer codes relevant to combustion technology Includes the most recent modeling and analytical developments motivated by empirical experimental observations in a highly visual way Provides self-contained chapters that include a comprehensive, introductory section that ensures any readers new to this topic are equipped with required technical terms
Download or read book Experimental Investigation on the Effects of Free Stream Turbulence and Fuel Type on Structure and Blowoff Characteristics of Turbulent Premixed Bluff body Stabilized Flames written by Bikram Roy Chowdhury and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental investigation on the effect of different levels of turbulence intensity and properties of the fuel/air mixture on the structure and characteristics of lean flames stabilized on an axisymmetric bluff body is described in this thesis. Simultaneous imaging of hydroxyl (OH) and formaldehyde (CH2O) by planar laser induced fluorescence and particle image velocimetry (PIV) were used to study the interaction between the flame and the flow field. CH2O fluorescence and the pixel-by-pixel multiplication of OH and CH2O fluorescence signals were utilized to mark preheat and heat release regions respectively. In addition, high-speed chemiluminescence imaging was performed to understand the time resolved characteristics of the flame. The first part of the thesis focuses on the characteristics of stably burning lean methane/-, propane/- and ethylene/air flames when subjected to low (4 %), moderate (14 %) and intense (24 and 30%) levels of free stream turbulence. The flame front structure was observed to be strongly dependent on the free stream turbulence level of the incoming fuel/air mixture as well on the properties of the fuel/air mixture. Formation of cusps and unburnt mixture fingers were observed as the turbulence intensity was increased from 4 to 14 % but, the heat release region remained continuous. Under intense turbulence conditions, methane/- and ethylene/air (f = 0.85) flames exhibited localized extinctions along the flame sheet and flamelet merging events which created isolated pockets of reactants in the flame envelope. In addition to these features, propane/- and ethylene/air (f=0.655) flames exhibited the occurrence of flame fragmentation events and the general shape of these flames were observed to intermittently switch from a symmetric (varicose) to asymmetric (sinuous) mode. Several properties were measured to characterize the effects of turbulence – flame interaction which includes the average preheat and reaction zone thicknesses, strain rates and curvature along the flame front, burning fraction, flame brush thickness, flame surface density, area ratio and turbulent flame speed. The next part of the thesis focuses on blowoff dynamics of lean methane/-, propane/- and ethylene/air flames for mean velocities of 5, 10 and 15 m/s and subjected to free stream turbulence levels from 4 to 30%. Apart from the propane/air flames at an apporach velcoity of 5 m/s and turbulence intensity of 30 %, increasing turbulence intensity was found to reduce the flame stability. The blowoff equivalence ratios of propane/air flames was observed to be higher than methane/- and ethylene/air flames. As blowoff was approached, the flame front and shear layer vortices entangled inducing high local strain rates on the flame front that exceed the extinction strain rate resulting in significant breaks along the reaction zone. At conditions near blowoff, significant increase in the frequency of breaks along the reaction zone was observed for low and moderate turbulence conditions. For the higher turbulence conditions, fragmentation of the flame along with the presence of sinuous wakes was observed which aided in the penetration of reactants into the recirculation zone. Velocity vectors near the flame holes indicate the penetration of the reactants into the recirculation zone. Mostly similar sequence of events was observed for methane/-, propane/- and ethylene/air flames near blowoff. Several properties weremeasured to characterize the near blowoff flames which include the strain rate and curvature statistics along the flame front, burning fraction, asymmetric index and the average duration of the blowoff event. Based on the observation from the experiments, turbulent flame speed was attributed to be the primary factor in governing the blowoff equivalence ratio. This point of view was examined by comparing the mean strain rate of methane/- and ethylene/air flames at the equivalence ratio corresponding to near blowoff for propane/air flames.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A methodology for investigating premixed turbulent flames propagating in intense isotropic turbulence has been developed. The burner uses a turbulence generator developed by Videto and Santavicca and the flame is stabilized by weak-swirl generated by air injectors. This set-up produces stable premixed turbulent flames under a wide range of mixture conditions and turbulence intensities. The experiments are designed to investigate systematically the changes in flame structures for conditions which can be classified as wrinkled laminar flames, corrugated flames and flames with distributed reaction zones. Laser Doppler anemometry and Rayleigh scattering techniques are used to determine the turbulence and scalar statistics. In the intense turbulence, the flames are found to produce very little changes in the mean and rams velocities. Their flame speed increase linearly with turbulence intensity as for wrinkled laminar flames. The Rayleigh scattering pdfs for flames within the distributed reaction zone regime are distinctly bimodal. The probabilities of the reacting states (i.e. contributions from within the reaction zone) is not higher than those of wrinkled laminar flame. These results show that there is no drastic changes in flame structures at Karlovitz number close to unity. This suggest that the Klimov-Williams criterion under-predicts the resilience of wrinkled flamelets to intense turbulence.
