Book Structure of Hydrogen rich Transverse Jets in a Vitiated Turbulent Flow

Download or read book Structure of Hydrogen rich Transverse Jets in a Vitiated Turbulent Flow written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our paper reports the results of a joint experimental and numerical study of the flow characteristics and flame structure of a hydrogen rich jet injected normal to a turbulent, vitiated crossflow of lean methane combustion products. Simultaneous high-speed stereoscopic PIV and OH PLIF measurements were obtained and analyzed alongside three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of inert and reacting JICF with detailed H2/COH2/CO chemistry. Both the experiment and the simulation reveal that, contrary to most previous studies of reacting JICF stabilized in low-to-moderate temperature air crossflow, the present conditions lead to a burner-attached flame that initiates uniformly around the burner edge. Significant asymmetry is observed, however, between the reaction zones located on the windward and leeward sides of the jet, due to the substantially different scalar dissipation rates. The windward reaction zone is much thinner in the near field, while also exhibiting significantly higher local and global heat release than the much broader reaction zone found on the leeward side of the jet. The unsteady dynamics of the windward shear layer, which largely control the important jet/crossflow mixing processes in that region, are explored in order to elucidate the important flow stability implications arising in the inert and reacting JICF. The paper concludes with an analysis of the ignition, flame characteristics, and global structure of the burner-attached flame. FurthermoreChemical explosive mode analysis (CEMA) shows that the entire windward shear layer, and a large region on the leeward side of the jet, are highly explosive prior to ignition and are dominated by non-premixed flame structures after ignition. The predominantly mixing limited nature of the flow after ignition is examined by computing the Takeno flame index, which shows that ~70% of the heat release occurs in non-premixed regions.

Book Turbulent Structure  Mixing and Combustion

Download or read book Turbulent Structure Mixing and Combustion written by Anatol Roshko and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of the studies on transverse jets is to define the mixing processes in transverse jets and their relation to the vortical structure of the jet. Both near field and far field and the relation of the latter to the former are of interest. To study the near field of the transverse jet a new apparatus has been constructed. This consists of a jet, 1.5 inches in diameter, discharging into an open-circuit wind tunnel with 20 in square test section. In this setup, smoke wires can be effectively used to visualize various planes of flow either inside or outside the jet. (Author).

Book Structure in the Near Field of the Transverse Jet

Download or read book Structure in the Near Field of the Transverse Jet written by Thomas Frank Fric and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographs of an axisymmetric turbulent jet issuing from a wall into a crossflow display 4 types of vortical structures which exist in the near field: jet shear layer vortices, nascent far field vortex pair, near wall horseshoe vortices, and a system of vortices in the jet wake. Results of hot-wire measurements in the wake of the transverse jet are presented. Among these results are characteristic wake Strouhal frequencies which vary with the jet/crossflow velocity ratio, and wake velocity profiles. It is found that the wake vorticity is not 'shed' from the jet but is formed from vorticity which originated in the wall boundary layer. Thus analogies between the wakes of transverse jets and the wakes of solid cylinders are incorrect. Since the jet is not a solid obstacle to crossflow, as a cylinder is, new vorticity is not generated at the interface between the jet and the crossflow. Instead, the boundary layer on the wall from which the jet issues separates near the downstream side of the jet because it cannot negotiate the adverse pressure gradient imposed on it by the flow around the jet, which is not 'separated' as it is for a cylinder. Wake vortices subsequently formed are found to be most coherent near a jet/crossflow velocity ratio of 4. Near field development of the counterrotating vortex pair, which is the dominant structure of the far field jet, is also addressed. It is argued that the source of vorticity for the vortex pair is the vorticity from the boundary layer within the jet nozzle. Estimates for the strength of these vortices are obtained by considering the flux of vorticity emanating from the nozzle. Possible implications for mixing are briefly discussed.

Book Unsteady Combustor Physics

Download or read book Unsteady Combustor Physics written by Tim C. Lieuwen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 427 pages. 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.

Book Turbulent Premixed Flames

Download or read book Turbulent Premixed Flames written by Nedunchezhian Swaminathan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-25 with total page 447 pages. 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.

Book Data Analysis for Direct Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Combustion

Download or read book Data Analysis for Direct Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Combustion written by Heinz Pitsch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents methodologies for analysing large data sets produced by the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulence and combustion. It describes the development of models that can be used to analyse large eddy simulations, and highlights both the most common techniques and newly emerging ones. The chapters, written by internationally respected experts, invite readers to consider DNS of turbulence and combustion from a formal, data-driven standpoint, rather than one led by experience and intuition. This perspective allows readers to recognise the shortcomings of existing models, with the ultimate goal of quantifying and reducing model-based uncertainty. In addition, recent advances in machine learning and statistical inferences offer new insights on the interpretation of DNS data. The book will especially benefit graduate-level students and researchers in mechanical and aerospace engineering, e.g. those with an interest in general fluid mechanics, applied mathematics, and the environmental and atmospheric sciences.

Book Multicomponent Flow Modeling

Download or read book Multicomponent Flow Modeling written by Vincent Giovangigli and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this is book to give a detailed presentation of multicomponent flow models and to investigate the mathematical structure and properties of the resulting system of partial differential equations. These developments are also illustrated by simulating numerically a typical laminar flame. Our aim in the chapters is to treat the general situation of multicomponent flows, taking into account complex chemistry and detailed transport phe nomena. In this book, we have adopted an interdisciplinary approach that en compasses a physical, mathematical, and numerical point of view. In par ticular, the links between molecular models, macroscopic models, mathe matical structure, and mathematical properties are emphasized. We also often mention flame models since combustion is an excellent prototype of multicomponent flow. This book still does not pretend to be a complete survey of existing models and related mathematical results. In particular, many subjects like multi phase-flows , turbulence modeling, specific applications, porous me dia, biological models, or magneto-hydrodynamics are not covered. We rather emphasize the fundamental modeling of multicomponent gaseous flows and the qualitative properties of the resulting systems of partial dif ferential equations. Part of this book was taught at the post-graduate level at the Uni versity of Paris, the University of Versailles, and at Ecole Poly technique in 1998-1999 to students of applied mathematics.
