Studies on Soot Formation and Combustion in Turbulent Spray Flames: Modeling and Experimental Measurement
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
The present study is concerned with measuring and simulating soot formation and combustion in turbulent liquid fuel spray flames. Soot concentrations inside the combustor are measured by filter paper technique. The simulation is based on the solution of the fully-coupled conservation equations for turbulent flow, chemical species kinetic modeling, fuel droplet evaporation and combustion and soot formation/oxidation. The soot formation is modeled by using the soot particle number density and the mass density based on acetylene concentrations. Two oxidation models simulate the rate of soot combustion: the O2-oxidation model, which assumes soot combustion is caused by oxygen molecules, and the O2-OH oxidation model, which assumes soot combustion occurrs by both hydroxide radicals and oxygen molecules. The experimental and numerical investigations are conducted for different fuel spray cone angles. The comparison of calculated results against experimental measurements shows good agreement. Both the numerical and experimental results show that the peak value of soot and its location in the furnace depend on fuel spray cone angle. An increase in spray angle enhances the evaporating rate and increases peak temperature near the nozzle. The results also show that the OH radical has major influence on soot combustion especially while O2 oxidation is minimal.

Soot volume fraction and number density in a turbulent diffusion flame burning kerosene/air were predicted using two approaches. The first used a conventional soot inception model based on the acetylene concentration and is referred to as the acetylene model. The second used a soot inception model based on the formation rate of three and two ring aromatics [1] and is referred to as the PAH ince...
