  2. 1. Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Flames Stabilized by Swirl Flow and Bluff-body:Flame Structures and Flame Instabilities

    Author : Yiheng Tong; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flame structures; Flame instabilities; Blowout limits; Flashback; Swirl Flow; Bluff-body; Chemiluminescence; PIV;

    Abstract : Combustion and its control are essential to our existence on this planet since we knew it. Nowadays, the largest share of the world’s electricity and most of our transportation systems are powered by combustion. In addition, industrial processes also rely heavily upon combustion.

  4. 2. Application of Laser Techniques in Combustion Environments of Relevance for Gas Turbine Studies

    Author : Andreas Lantz; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laser Diagnostics; PLIF; Laser-Induced Fluorescence; Combustion; Fuel visualization; LIF; Gas turbine; Flashback; Flame position; Swirling flame; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Lantz;

    Abstract : In the work presented in this thesis, different laser-based techniques were employed for measurements in different combustion devices. Laser-based techniques enable non-intrusive and in-situ measurements to be carried out, in which high spatial and temporal resolution can be obtained. READ MORE

  5. 3. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Swirling Flows and Turbulent Premixed Combustion

    Author : Ping Wang; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid dynamics; Gases; flamelet model; flame wrinkle; large eddy simulation; vortex breakdown; turbulent premixed combustion; level set G-equation; swirling flow; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; Energy research; Energiforskning;

    Abstract : With the increasing concerns about our environment and human health, more and more stringent emission limits have been specified. These adopted and still coming emission limits require and promote more accurate, less experiential methods to design and develop the combustors. READ MORE

  6. 4. Large Eddy Simulation of Swirling Reacting Flows

    Author : Mohammad Irannezhad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; Swirling flow; Large Eddy Simulation;

    Abstract : The combustion of fossil fuels remains a key technology as these fuels are the main source of energy in the foreseeable future. Heat released in combustion is often accompanied by emission of undesired soot, CO and NOx pollutants. READ MORE

  7. 5. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Swirling Flows in Combustor Related Geometries

    Author : Yajing Wu; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Swirling flow; swirler; vortex breakdown; precessing vortex core PVC ; large eddy simulation LES .;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the physics of turbulent swirling flows. Large eddy simulation (LES) method is used to investigate the vortex breakdown process, the precessing vortex core (PVC), and the effect of swirl number and flow field configuration on swirling flows. The study is based on an open source CFD code, \textit{OpenFoam}. READ MORE
