Soot and NOx Measurement in a Cyclone-Jet Combustor and Numerical Simulation on Flame Structure

Soot and NOx Formation in a Stationary Turbulent Combustor

On the basis of the stochastic reactor model Partially Stirred Plug Flow Reactor (PaSPFR) a model is developed that accounts for soot and NOx formation in the distributed combustion regime. This is done by means of the joint composition probability density function (PDF). The composition vector consists of the species mass fraction in the gas phase, enthalpy, and four moments of the soot partic...

a study on rate making and required reserves determination in reinsurance market: a simulation

reinsurance is widely recognized as an important instrument in the capital management of an insurance company as well as its risk management tool. this thesis is intended to determine premium rates for different types of reinsurance policies. also, given the fact that the reinsurance coverage of every company depends upon its reserves, so different types of reserves and the method of their calc...

On the Dependence of Soot Formation and Combustion on Swirling Combustion Furnaces: Measurement and Simulation

Soot concentration distribution is investigated both numerically and experimentally in methane-air diffusion flame. The experimental work is conducted with a cylindrical swirl stabilized combustor. Filter paper technique is used to measure soot volume fraction inside the combustor. The numerical simulation is based on the solution of the fully-coupled conservation equations for swirling turbule...
