Efficient Simulation of Multi-dimensional Detonation Phenomena
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a solution strategy for Euler equations for multiple thermally perfect gaseous species with detailed chemical reaction. Via operator-splitting a high-resolution finite-volume scheme and a stiff ODE solver are coupled. A parallel blockstructured adaptive mesh refinement algorithm is utilized to achieve the required local resolution. A highly resolved computation of regular detonation-cell patterns of the hydrogen-oxygen-argon system demonstrates the efficiency of the entire approach.

Viscous attenuation of a detonation wave propagating in a channel
The propagation of a detonation wave remains one of the challenging problems in physics. While it is possible to predict the average propagation velocity almost correctly using classical theory [1, 2], there is no theory to explain the internal flow structure satisfactorily. The famous Zel’dovich-von Neumann-Döring theory [3, 4, 5] is widely considered to describe the one-dimensional detonation...
متن کاملDetonation Simulation with the AMROC Framework
Numerical simulations can be the key to the thorough understanding of the multi-dimensional nature of transient detonation waves. But the accurate approximation of realistic detonations is extremely demanding, because a wide range of different scales need to be resolved. This paper describes an efficient simulation strategy based on a generic implementation of a blockstructured dynamically adap...

Accidental internal detonation waves are a common threat to the pipeline systems of petrochemical or nuclear fuel processing plants. In order to quantify the failure potential of piping structures, especially at bends, accurate detonation pressure histories are required [5]. Since detonations inhibit multi-dimensional wave structures with triple points of enhanced chemical reaction, one-dimensi...
متن کاملPropagation of gaseous detonation waves in a spatially inhomogeneous reactive medium
Detonation propagation in a compressible medium wherein the energy release has been made spatially inhomogeneous is examined via numerical simulation. The inhomogeneity is introduced via step functions in the reaction progress variable, with the local value of energy release correspondingly increased so as to maintain the same average energy density in the medium, and thus a constant Chapman Jo...
