Numerical and experimental study of an axisymmetric coflow laminar methane-air diffusion flame at pressures between 5 and 40 atmospheres

Journal Article Liu, Fengshan ; Thomson, Kevin A ; Guo, Hongsheng ; ... - Combustion and Flame

A numerical and experimental study of an axisymmetric coflow laminar methane-air diffusion flame at pressures between 5 and 40 atm was conducted to investigate the effect of pressure on the flame structure and soot formation characteristics. Experimental work was carried out in a new high-pressure combustion chamber described in a recent study [K.A. Thomson, O.L. Gulder, E.J. Weckman, R.A. Fraser, G.J. Smallwood, D.R. Snelling, Combust. Flame 140 (2005) 222-232]. Radially resolved soot volume fraction was experimentally measured using both spectral soot emission and line-of-sight attenuation techniques. Numerically, the elliptic governing equations were solved in axisymmetric cylindrical coordinates using the finitemore »« less

Computational and experimental study of soot formation in a coflow, laminar diffusion flame

Journal Article Smooke, M D ; McEnally, C S ; Pfefferle, L D ; ... - Combustion and Flame

A detailed soot growth model in which the equations for particle production have been coupled to the flow and gaseous species conservation equations has been developed for an axisymmetric, laminar, coflow diffusion flame. Results from the model have been compared to experimental data for a confined methane-air flame. The two-dimensional system couples detailed transport and finite rate chemistry in the gas phase with the aerosol equations in the sectional representation. The formulation includes detailed treatment of the transport, inception, surface growth, oxidation, and coalescence of soot particulates.

Structure of laminar coflow methane-air diffusion flames

Journal Article Saito, K ; Williams, F A ; Gordon, A S - J. Heat Transfer; (United States)

Measured temperature and composition profiles are reported for a number of flames. Implications concerning flame structure are deduced, with emphasis on soot formation and on correlation involving conserved scalars.

Effects of fuel and oxygen inlet velocities on the characteristics of laminar spray diffusion flames

Conference Greenberg, J B

The Burke-Schumann type spray diffusion flame is investigated theoretically, under the assumption that the fuel and oxygen inlet velocities may be dissimilar. Parameters capturing this dissimilarity and the spray-related vaporization Damkohler number are identified, and utilized in a numerical study of the coupled convection/diffusion/vaporization effects that play a role in determining flame characteristics. The severity of assuming a mass transfer model only is discussed in relation to the qualitative significance of the results herein obtained.
Computational and experimental study of laminar flames

Technical Report Smooke, M D

We have begun a computational study of nonpremixed tubular methane-air flames with detailed transport and finite rate chemistry. Our multidimensional computation research has been focused primarily on determining the structure of methane-air flames with C{sub 2} chemistry. Experimentally, we have continued our investigation of axisymmetric laminar flames using laser imaging techniques. We have investigated varying the fuel/diluent ratio. In methane flames,there is a broadband fluorescence that overlaps the Raman wavelengths used to measure the concentration of major species.
