In this paper, the effect of adding hydrogen to the composition of methane and air in a micro combustor is investigated by a three-dimensional numerical method. First, the results of the current study in determining the wall temperature of the micro combustion chamber are compared with those obtained from the experimental and numerical results of the previous research. By confirming the numeric...

this paper reports a cfd modeling study to investigate the hydrogen-air mixture combustion in a micro scale chamber. nine species with nineteen reversible reactions were considered in the premixed combustion model. the effect of operational and geometrical conditions including; combustor size, wall conductivity, reactant flow rates and hydrogen feed splitting on combustion stability and outlet ...

in this study, the effect of the levels of hydrogen addition to methane-air premixed flame in a micro-stepped reactor has been studied numerically. in addition, the effects of mixture velocity and walls’ thermal conductivity (kw) on the flame’s location, temperature, and species distribution in a micro reactor were calculated using a 2d numerical laminar steady code. the results showed that an ...

Hydrogen has been known as a clean and suitable fuel to replace conventional fossil fuels. One of the common hydrogen production methods is using water electrolysis process. This method produces oxygen as well as hydrogen by ratio of 1:2. The aim of this work is to investigate the effects of inlet air enrichment by adding produced hydrogen and oxygen to an internal combustion engine. For this p...

hydrogen is seen as one of the important energy carriers of the future with potential to reduce local as well as global warming. the main by-product of the combustion of hydrogen in air is water vapor and trace quantities of oxides of nitrogen. an experiment was conducted to study the impact of hydrogen/natural gas blends on performance, thermodynamic efficiency and exhaust gas emissions in a r...

Hot surface ignition was examined using a variety of heat sources in a series of premixed hydrocarbon, hydrogen, and air mixtures. Building off previous work, hexane-air, heptane-air and hydrogen-air experiments were performed in addition to the eventual hexane-hydrogen-air mixtures. Using high-speed schlieren photography, thermocouples, and a fast-response pressure transducer, flame characteri...

laboratory scale experiments were performed to evaluate the feasibility of biofilters for the removal of h2 s from wastewater treatment plant waste air. the effects of changes in air flow rate and contaminant concentration on biofilter performance treating h 2 s odours were also assessed. compost was used as media in biofilter. the study was carried out in six different phases, by increasing h2...
