چکیده
An improved understanding of cool diffusion flames could lead to engines. These are investigated here using a spherical porous burner with gaseous fuels in the microgravity environment International Space Station. Normal and inverse burning ethane, propane, n-butane were explored various fuel oxygen concentrations, pressures, flow rates. The diagnostics included an intensified video camera, radiometers, thermocouples. Spherical gases observed for first time. However, these not readily produced only obtained normal at 2 bar ambient mole fraction 0.39. hot that spawned 2.6 times as large. analytical model is presented combines previous models steady droplet partial-burning regime flames. results identify importance temperature on behavior They also indicate reside rich regions near mixture 0.53.

Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy Measurements of Temperature Fluctuations in Turbulent Natural Gas-Fueled Piloted Jet Diffusion Flames
Temperature fluctuations have been measured in a turbulent, natural gas-fueled, piloted jet diffusion flame with a fuel jet exit Reynolds number of 9700, using broadband Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy (CARS) nitrogen thermometry with a best spatial resolution of 0.9 mm. Radial profiles of mean temperature and root mean square (rms) temperature fluctuations have been acquired and temper...
متن کاملA computational study of oscillatory extinction of spherical diffusion flames
The transient behavior of burner-supported spherical diffusion flames was studied in the transport-induced limit of low mass flow rate and the radiation-induced limit of high mass flow rate which characterize the isola response of flame extinction. Oscillatory instability was observed near both steady-state extinction limits. The oscillation typically grows in amplitude until it becomes large e...
متن کاملMicrogravity Burner-Generated Spherical Diffusion Flames: Experiment and Computation
Microgravity experiments were conducted in the 2.2-s drop-tower facility at the NASA Glenn Research Center to study the transient response of the burner-generated spherical diffusion flame caused by its initial displacement from the steady-state position. The experiment involved issuing H2/CH4/inert mixtures of constant fuel mass flow rates from a bronze, porous, 1.27-cm-diameter, spherical bur...
متن کاملEffects of Lewis Number on Temperatures of Spherical Diffusion Flames
Spherical diffusion flames supported on a porous sphere were studied numerically and experimentally. Experiments were performed in 2.2 s and 5.2 s microgravity facilities. Numerical results were obtained from a Chemkin-based program. The program simulates flow from a porous sphere into a quiescent environment, yields both steady-state and transient results, and accounts for optically thick gas-...
متن کاملEffect of the temperature difference between gas and organic dust on propagating spherical flames
A new analytical study performed to investigate the effect of the temperature difference between gas and particle in propagation of the spherical flames. The combustible system is containing uniformly distributed volatile fuel particles in an oxidizing gas (Air) mixture. The model includes evaporation of volatile matter of dust particles to known gaseous fuel (methane) and the single-stage reac...
