Premixed-flame shapes and polynomials

چکیده
The nonlinear nonlocal Michelson-Sivashinsky equation for isolated crests of unstable flames is studied, using pole-decompositions as starting point. Polynomials encoding the numerically computed 2N flame-slope poles, and auxiliary ones, are found to closely follow a MeixnerPollaczek recurrence; accurate steady crest shapes ensue for N3. Squeezed crests ruled by a discretized Burgers equation involve the same polynomials. Such explicit approximate shape still lack for finite-N pole-decomposed periodic flames, despite another empirical recurrence.

Resolvent methods for steady premixed flame shapes governed by the Zhdanov-Trubnikov equation
Using pole decompositions as starting points, the one parameter (−1 ≤ c < 1) nonlocal and nonlinear Zhdanov-Trubnikov (ZT) equation for the steady shapes of premixed gaseous flames is studied in the large-wrinkle limit. The singular integral equations for pole densities are closely related to those satisfied by the spectral density in the O(n) matrix model, with n = −2 1+c 1−c . They can be sol...
متن کاملShapes and speeds of steady forced premixed flames.
Steady premixed flames subjected to space-periodic steady forcing are studied via inhomogeneous Michelson-Sivashinsky (MS) and then Burgers equations. For both, the flame slope is posited to comprise contributions from complex poles to locate, and from a base-slope profile chosen in three classes (pairs of cotangents, single-sine functions or sums thereof). Base-slope-dependent equations for th...
متن کاملEffects of Small-Scale Turbulence on NOx Formation in Premixed Flame Fronts
Abstract A flamelet-based approach that accounts for turbulence-chemistry interaction has been formulated to simulate NOx formation in turbulent lean premixed combustion. In the simulations, the species NO is transported and solved with the chemical source term being modelled through its formation in flame fronts and its formation rate in post-flame regions. The flame-front NO and post-flame NO...
متن کاملInvestigation of NO production and flame structure in plasma enhanced premixed combustion
A pulsed plasma source is used to stabilize lean premixed methane flames. Nitric oxide (NO) production is measured using probe sampling and chemiluminescence analysis. While the discharge is a potential source of NO, it is observed that the flame also consumes some NO. The NO production in the flame is modeled by use of a modified opposed diffusion flame simulation (OPPDIF), augmented by the in...

The spatial resolution requirements of the Stochastic Fields probability density function approach are investigated in the context of turbulent premixed combustion simulation. The Stochastic Fields approach is an attractive way to implement transported Probability Density Function modelling into Large Eddy Simulations of turbulent combustion. In premixed combustion LES, the numerical grid shoul...
