Detailed analysis of a pseudoresonant interaction between cellular flames and velocity turbulence

چکیده
This work is dedicated to the analysis of the delicate details of the effect of upstream velocity fluctuations on the flame propagation speed. The investigation was carried out using the Sivashinsky model of cellularisation of hydrodynamically unstable flame fronts. We identified the perturbations of the steadily propagating flames which can be significantly amplified over finite periods of time. These perturbations were used to model the effect of upstream velocity fluctuations on the flame front dynamics and to study a possibility to control the flame propagation speed.

Calculations of bluff-body stabilized flames using a joint probability density function model with detailed chemistry
Joint probability density function (PDF) calculations are reported of the bluff-body stabilized flames (HM1, HM2, and HM3) and the results are compared with the available experimental data. The calculations are based on the modeled transport equation for the joint PDF of velocity, turbulence frequency, and composition (species mass fractions and enthalpy) using the interaction by exchange with ...

متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Nitrogen Oxide Formation in Lean Premixed Turbulent H2/O2/N2 Flames
Lean premixed hydrogen flames are thermodiffusively unstable and burn in cellular structures. Within these cellular structures the flame is locally enriched by preferential diffusion of H2. This local enrichment leads to hot spots in which the flame burns with considerably more intensity than the corresponding laminar flame. In this paper we investigate the impact of this local enrichment on th...
متن کاملSmall-scale Interaction of Turbulence with Thermonuclear Flames in Type Ia Supernovae
Microscopic turbulence-flame interactions of thermonuclear fusion flames occuring in Type Ia Supernovae were studied by means of incompressible direct numerical simulations with a highly simplified flame description. The flame is treated as a single diffusive scalar field with a nonlinear source term. It is characterized by its Prandtl number, Pr ≪ 1, and laminar flame speed, SL. We find that i...
متن کاملCellular burning in lean premixed turbulent hydrogen-air flames: coupling experimental and computational analysis at the laboratory scale
One strategy for reducing US dependence on petroleum is to develop new combustion technologies for burning the fuel-lean mixtures of hydrogen or hydrogen-rich syngas fuels obtained from the gasification of coal and biomass. Fuel-flexible combustion systems based on lean premixed combustion have the potential for dramatically reducing pollutant emissions in transportation systems, heat and stati...
