Hydrogen is a valued resource for today’s industry. As fuel, it produces large amounts of energy and creates water during the process, unlike most other polluting sources. However, safe use hydrogen requires reliable tools able to accurately predict combustion. This study presents implementation deep neural network laminar burning velocity into an open-source CFD solver flameFoam. DNN was devel...

[1] We construct global atmospheric budgets of HCN and CH3CN through a threedimensional (3-D) model simulation of the HCN-CH3CN-CO system constrained and evaluated with aircraft observations from the Transport and Chemical Evolution Over the Pacific (TRACE-P) mission over the NW Pacific in February–April 2001. Observed background vertical gradients of HCN and CH3CN imply a dominant ocean sink f...

Experimental studies have been performed to investigate the effects of hydrogen addition on the combustion characteristics of Chinese No.3 jet fuel (RP-3 kerosene/air premixed flames. Experiments were carried out in a constant volume chamber and the influences of the initial temperatures of 390 and 420 K, initial pressures of 0.1 and 0.3 MPa, equivalence ratios of 0.6–1.6 and hydrogen additions...

A combination of microgravity experiments and computational simulations were used to study effects of diluents on the near-limit properties of laminar, premixed hydrogen/air flames. The experiments were conducted in a short-drop free-fall laboratory facility that provided at least 450 ms of 10−2g conditions. Outwardly propagating spherical flames were used to measure near-limit laminar burning ...

We examine the convective core helium burning phase of intermediate mass stars, and investigate the role of coupling of nuclear burning and mixing on the extension and duration of the blue loop phase. We compare the theoretical scenario with the distribution of stars in the colour-magnitude (CM) diagram of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) cluster NGC1866, whose largely populated clump of He-bur...
