Investigation of micro burner performance during porous media combustion for surface and submerged flames

Soot accumulation and combustion in porous media

Although diesel engines have an advantage of low fuel consumption compared with gasoline engines, several problems must be solved. One of the major concerns is that diesel exhaust gas has more particulate matters (PM) including soot, which are suspected to be linked to human carcinogen. As one of the key technologies, a diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been developed to reduce PM in the afte...

Numerical Simulation of Combustion in Porous Media

the study of bright and surface discrete cavity solitons dynamics in saturable nonlinear media

امروزه سالیتون ها بعنوان امواج جایگزیده ای که تحت شرایط خاص بدون تغییر شکل در محیط منتشر می-شوند، زمینه مطالعات گسترده ای در حوزه اپتیک غیرخطی هستند. در این راستا توجه به پدیده پراش گسسته، که بعنوان عامل پهن شدگی باریکه نوری در آرایه ای از موجبرهای جفت شده، ظاهر می گردد، ضروری است، زیرا سالیتون های گسسته از خنثی شدن پراش گسسته در این سیستم ها بوسیله عوامل غیرخطی بوجود می آیند. گسستگی سیستم عامل...

Simulation of Cup-Burner Flames in Microgravity

The extinction process of cup-burner flames under normal-gravity conditions were previously studied. As the low-speed diffusion flames behave differently in microgravity compared to those on earth, it is important to understand the structure of cup-burner flame and its extinction characteristics under 0g conditions. A numerical study was performed in the present paper using a time-dependent, ax...

Hybrid Mixed Discretization Methods for Combustion Problems in Porous Media

This paper presents numerical methods for the simulation of combustion processes in porous media. The equations governing the ow in the porous medium are discretized by the mixed nite element method on Raviart{Thomas elements of lowest order. Hybridization is applied to transform the resulting equations into a form more convenient for the solution by multigrid methods. Special emphasis is put o...
