Book Reduced Kinetic Mechanisms and Asymptotic Approximations for Methane air Flames

Download or read book Reduced Kinetic Mechanisms and Asymptotic Approximations for Methane air Flames written by Mitchell D. Smooke and published by Springer. This book was released on 1991 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive text a systematic numerical and analytical treatment of the procedures for reducing complicated systems to a simplified reaction mechanism is presented. The results of applying the reduced reaction mechanism to a one-dimensional laminar flame are discussed. A set of premixed and non-premixed methane-air flames with simplified transport and skeletal chemistry are employed as test problems that are used later on to evaluate the results and assumptions in reduced reaction networks. The first four chapters form a short tutorial on the procedures used in formulating the test problems and in reducing reaction mechanisms by applying steady-state and partial-equilibrium approximations. The final six chapters discuss various aspects of the reduced chemistry problem for premixed and nonpremixed combustion.

Book Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and Related Topics

Download or read book Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and Related Topics written by Claude-Michel Brauner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1988-03-31 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains invited lectures and contributed papers presented at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Mathematical Modeling in Combustion and related topics, held in. Lyon (France), April 27 - 30, 1987. This conference was planned to fit in with the two-month visit of Professor G.S.S. Ludford to the Ecole Centrale de Lyon. He kindly agreed to chair the Scientific and Organizing Committee and actively helped to initiate the meeting. His death in December 1986 is an enormous loss to the scientific community in general, and in particular, to the people involved in the present enterprise. The subject of mathematical modeling in combustion is too large for a single conference, and the selection of topics re flects both areas of recent research activity and areas of in terest to Professor G.S.S. Ludford, to whose memory the Advanced Workshop and this present volume are dedicated. The meeting was divided into seven specialized sessions detonation theory, mathematical analysis, numerical treatment of combustion problems, flame theory, experimental and industrial aspects, complex chemistry, and turbulent combustion. It brought together researchers and engineers from University and Industry (see below the closing remarks of the workshop by Prof. N. Peters). The articles in this volume have been judged and accepted on their scientific quality, and language corrections may have been sacrificed in order to allow quick dissemination of knowledge to prevail.

Book An Investigation of Axisymmetric Buoyant Turbulent Diffusion Flames

Download or read book An Investigation of Axisymmetric Buoyant Turbulent Diffusion Flames written by S-M. Jeng and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation considered measurements of the structure of axisymmetric, buoyant, turbulent diffusion flames in still air. Profiles of mean temperature, mean velocity, velocity fluctuations and total radiant heat flux were completed for methane flames, including careful characterization of burner exit conditions, in order to provide data for the evaluation of models of the process. Preliminary tests also provided mean temperature profiles for propane flames. Test conditions were chosen so that the flow was turbulent near the burner exit while effects of buoyancy were significant over most of the luminous portion of the flames. Both the present measurements and those of other investigators were compared with predictions of a k-E-g differential model, which included effects of buoyancy in the transport equations for turbulence quantities. The results indicated anisotropic effects in regions where buoyancy dominates flow properties suggesting the eventual desirability of multi-stress models for buoyant flames, although extensive recalibration of model constants from a limited data based would be required if this step were taken. Additional measurements and analysis of methane flames are in progress, in order to investigate the flame radiation properties and provide additional data on turbulence properties needed for model development.

Book Measurement of Smoke Point in Laminar Jet Diffusion Flames at Atmospheric and Elevated Pressures

Download or read book Measurement of Smoke Point in Laminar Jet Diffusion Flames at Atmospheric and Elevated Pressures written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a Burke-Schumman modeled co-flow burner, a quartz chimney, and a pressure vessel with good optical access, the smoke points in pure and diluted fuels were measured in a laminar jet diffusion flame. Ethylene and methane, burning in a velocity matched, over-ventilated co-flow of air, were tested over the ranges of 1 to 8 atmospheres and 2 to 16 atmospheres, respectively. Various diluents (nitrogen, argon, helium, and carbon dioxide) were added individually to the pure fuels to observe the effects they have on the smoke points and the adiabatic flame temperatures at atmospheric and elevated pressures. These diluents were chosen to allow a wide range of flame temperatures and fuel Lewis numbers to be investigated. For a given fuel flow rate, the dilution level was increased until the flame ceased emitting visible soot (defined as the smoke point). The height of the flame was then measured and the adiabatic flame temperature was calculated based on equilibrium chemistry. While some previous research has focused on the effects of flame temperature (through dilution) on smoke points, the measurements reported here were made to investigate the effects of pressure, different diluents, and varying dilution rates on sooting tendency. The main findings of these experiments were: increasing the amount of diluent to a pure fuel increases the smoke point, the smoke point is a function of the air to fuel velocity ratio, smoke point is strongly dependent on the inverse of pressure, and residence time decreases with increases in pressure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combustion of fossil fuels remains a key technology for the foreseeable future. It is therefore important that we understand the mechanisms of combustion and, in particular, the role of turbulence within this process. Combustion always takes place within a turbulent flow field for two reasons: turbulence increases the mixing process and enhances combustion, but at the same time combustion releases heat which generates flow instability through buoyancy, thus enhancing the transition to turbulence. The four chapters of this book present a thorough introduction to the field of turbulent combustion. After an overview of modeling approaches, the three remaining chapters consider the three distinct cases of premixed, non-premixed, and partially premixed combustion, respectively. This book will be of value to researchers and students of engineering and applied mathematics by demonstrating the current theories of turbulent combustion within a unified presentation of the field.
