Book excerpt: This research aims to investigate the nonlinear dynamics of the non-reacting jets and non-premixed lifted jet flames. The goal is to understand better how the flow system dynamics change over time and identify the path toward unwanted conditions such as flashback, extinction, or blowout to limit combustors' dynamical failure. The existence of these undesirable conditions is bound to the fluid's history, meaning that initiated perturbation may persist in the system for time scales comparable to large-scale flow timescales. Hence, the notion is to utilize jet and jet flames as a study test case to work out how the flow evolves dynamically with the hope of understanding how to limit occurrences of the chaotic unwanted condition. Initially, planar particle image velocimetry has been used for the development of the methodologies. I have used planar data to investigate the nonlinear dynamics of non-reacting turbulent jets, with a low-to-moderate Reynolds number using the single-trajectory framework and ensemble framework. I have used Lyapunov exponents to calculate the spectra of scaling indices of the attractor. Then, I used Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCSs), which are defined as manifolds that are locally Euclidean and invariant, to study the relationship between Lyapunov exponent changes with flow topological features. These LCSs behave as hypersurfaces with maximally repelling or attracting properties. These various methodologies were used to investigate flame-turbulence interaction in lifted jet flames. The Lagrangian framework is shown to be effective at revealing the kinematics associated with flame-turbulence interaction. The LCSs' time history represents how eddy structures interact with the flame and highlight their role in the dynamics of the lifted jet flames. Finally, I have investigated the flame and turbulence interaction using high-speed luminosity imaging and simultaneous three-dimensional particle image velocimetry. The three-dimensional Lagrangian structures provide us a more detailed flow-flame interaction. It is shown that the flow features associated with attracting LCSs can create a barrier attracting the flame that makes the flame move upstream. In contrast, the presence of repelling LCSs near stationary flames breaks the balance between the gas velocity and flame propagation speed, causing the flame to become non-stationary and move downstream. It was also found that the repelling LCSs induce negative curvature on the flame surface whereas pushing the flame toward the products. However, the attracting LCSs induce positive curvature on the flame surface and draws the flame toward the reactants

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on developing strategies for ultra-lean combustion of natural gas and hydrogen, and contributes to the research on extending the lean flammability limit of hydrogen and air using a hot supersonic jet. The author addresses experimental methods, data analysis techniques, and results throughout each chapter and: Explains the fundamental mechanisms behind turbulent hot jet ignition using non-dimensional analysis Explores ignition characteristics by impinging hot jet and multiple jets in relation to better controllability and lean combustion Explores how different instability modes interact with the acoustic modes of the combustion chamber. This book provides a potential answer to some of the issues that arise from lean engine operation, such as poor ignition, engine misfire, cycle-to-cycle variability, combustion instability, reduction in efficiency, and an increase in unburned hydrocarbon emissions. This thesis was submitted to and approved by Purdue University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several researchers have examined the concept of flame stability and there has been little agreement regarding the reasons governing this phenomenon. The experiments described within were devised to establish the dominating stabilization mechanism in lifted flames. Specifically, the flame base of lifted methane-jet diffusion flames were examined through the use of various combinations of synchronized laser-based techniques involving particle image velocimetry (PIV), planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF), and Rayleigh scattering. Results indicate the presence of a structure termed a flame. Results involving the gradient in the Rayleigh signal across the flame base, in addition to two-shot CH-PLIF interpretations support the leading-edge flame as a primary stabilization mechanism. The extent of premixing upstream of the flame base has been a major source of disagreement in the past. The simultaneous Rayleigh and CH-PLIF images indicate the base of the lifted flame lies in a region that is within the flammability limits of methane burning in air. Furthermore, the average velocity at the stabilization point is 1.18 m/s (as determined from the simultaneous CH-PLIF and PIV investigation); this value is comparable to three times the laminar burning velocity of methane (~ 3S), thereby supporting previous numerical triple flame simulations. Results from the joint two-shot CH-PLIF and PIV technique show that the flame base velocity is independent of the flow conditions when the flame is stationary during the time separation of the CH-PLIF pulses. Specifically, flames with Re flow conditions. Finally, regions of local extinction -- as indicated by openings in the CH profiles -- were examined. Results from four experiments (simultaneous CH-PLIF and PIV, simultaneous CH-PLIF and OH-PLIF, simultaneous CH-PLIF and Rayleigh scattering, and simultaneous two-shot CH-PLIF and PIV) provide complementary information regarding the role of large-scale fuel vortices in initiat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing clean, sustainable energy systems is a pre-eminent issue of our time. Most projections indicate that combustion-based energy conversion systems will continue to be the predominant approach for the majority of our energy usage. Unsteady combustor issues present the key challenge associated with the development of clean, high-efficiency combustion systems such as those used for power generation, heating or propulsion applications. This comprehensive study is unique, treating the subject in a systematic manner. Although this book focuses on unsteady combusting flows, it places particular emphasis on the system dynamics that occur at the intersection of the combustion, fluid mechanics and acoustic disciplines. Individuals with a background in fluid mechanics and combustion will find this book to be an incomparable study that synthesises these fields into a coherent understanding of the intrinsically unsteady processes in combustors.
