Optical Emission Tomography of Non-axisymmetric, Laminar, Premixed Flames
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optical emission tomography of flames has recently been demonstrated as a practical experimental technique for determining the instantaneous position of a 3D flame surface. In this paper, optical emission tomography is applied to steady and forced, non-axisymmetric, premixed, laminar flames. An experimental set-up involving a single camera and a rotatable flame holder allows camera images from an arbitrary number of directions to be obtained. The 3D flame surface is identified and the spatial and temporal resolution of the results is discussed. The dependence of the reconstruction on the number of views is investigated.

Parallel Solution-Adaptive Method for Two-Dimensional Non-Premixed Combusting Flows
A parallel adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) algorithm is proposed and applied to the predictions of both laminar and turbulent steady non-premixed compressible combusting flows. The parallel solution-adaptive algorithm solves the system of partial-differential equations governing two-dimensional axisymmetric laminar and turbulent compressible flows for reactive thermally perfect gaseous mixtures ...

متن کاملRadiation and Nitric Oxide Formation in Turbulent Non-premixed Jet Flames
Radiative heat transfer has a significant effect on nitric oxide (NO) formation in turbulent non-premixed flames. Consequently, predictive models of turbulent non-premixed flames must include an accurate radiation submodel. To investigate the importance of radiation submodels in modeling NO formation, multiscalar measurements of temperature and species were coupled with radiation measurements i...
متن کاملA comparative numerical study of premixed and non-premixed ethylene flames
Detailed numerical simulations of premixed and non-premixed C2H4/air flames were conducted, using six available kinetic mechanisms. The results help assess differences between these mechanisms and are of interest to proposed hydrocarbon-fueled SCRAMJET concepts, in which C2H4 can be expected to be a major component of the thermally cracked fuel. For premixed flames, laminar flame speeds were ca...

An experimental and theoretical investigation of free turbulent premixed flames propagating in isotropic turbulence at neutrally stable preferential diffusion conditions is described. Experiments were limited to the wrinkled thin laminar ftamelet regime and involved mixtures of hydrogen, air, and nitrogen ignited within a fan-stirred combustion chamber. Measurements included flame tomography fo...
