چکیده

The influence of strong rotation on the flame length in firewhirls (normalized by the fuel supply rate) is investigated analytically. A new prediction for the length of the flame in firewhirls with strong rotation is obtained by introducing the compensating regime of vortical flows. The prediction is in a good agreement with experimental results.

Investigation of Air Turbulence Intensity Effect on the Flame Structure in Different Flame Holder Geometry

In this paper, the effect of air turbulence intensity on the flame structure in various radii and lengths of a flame holder numerically studied. Finite volume method is used to solve the governing equations. The obtained numerical results using realizable k-ε and β-PDF models show a good agreement with the experimental data. The results show that flame holder with greater lengths yield shorter ...

Flame-generated Vorticity Production in Premixed Flame-vortex Interactions

INTRODUCTION Theoretical analysis, experimental observations, and numerical simulations have all indicated that flame-vortex interactions play an important role in the propagation and extinguishment of turbulent flames in microgravity [1]. Most studies of flame-vortex interactions ignore the effects of gravity and experiments are usually conducted in Earth gravity. Recently, Sinibaldi et al. [2...

Simulation of Premixed Combustion Flow around Circular Cylinder using Hybrid Random Vortex

This research describes the unsteady two-dimensional reacting flows around a circular cylinder. The numerical solution combines the random vortex method for incompressible two-dimensional viscous fluid flow with a Simple Line Interface Calculation (SLIC) algorithm for the propagation of flame interface. To simplify the governing equations, two fundamental assumptions namely Low Mach Number and ...

Nonlinear theory of flame front instability

Nonlinear non-stationary equation describing evolution of weakly curved premixed flames with arbitrary gas expansion, subject to the Landau-Darrieus instability, is derived. The new equation respects all the conservation laws to be satisfied across the flame front, as well as correctly takes into account influence of vorticity, generated in the flame, on the flame front structure and flame velo...

تأثیر قدرت جریان ثانویه بر تنش برشی بستر پیرامون آب‌شکن سرسپری مستقر در موقعیت‌های مختلف قوس 90 درجه با بسترصلب

In this study, the effect of the secondary flow strength and vorticity on variations of bed shear stress for different positions of spur dike are compared through a mild 90˚ bend along with a T-shaped spur dike in a rigid bed. To carry out these experiments, three dimensional velocimeters (ADV) have been used for measuring velocity. Moreover, a comparison has been made between velocity vectors ...
