  1. 6. Turbulent burning, flame acceleration, explosion triggering

    Author : V'yacheslav Akkerman; Vitaly Bychkov; Geoffrey Searby; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Turbulent combustion; flame acceleration; detonation explosion triggering; direct numerical simulations; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The present thesis considers several important problems of combustion theory, which are closely related to each other: turbulent burning, flame interaction with walls in different geometries, flame acceleration and detonation triggering. The theory of turbulent burning is developed within the renormalization approach. READ MORE

  2. 7. A Numerical Study of Reacting Flows Using Finite Rate Chemistry

    Author : Mohammad Irannezhad; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion modeling; Lean blow off; Finite rate chemistry; Inlet boundary condition; Combustion; Lean premixed; Engine configuration; Pulse Detonation Engine; Emissions; URANS; Unsteady phenomena; Flame stabilization; Low Swirl Burner; Large Eddy Simulation; Dynamic flame; Working cycle;

    Abstract : Fossil fuels will remain the main source of energy for mankind in theforeseeable future. Heat released in combustion of fossil fuels is alwaysaccompanied by emission of undesired pollutants. Environmental concernshave led to stringent emission rules for combustion industry speciallyfor reducing the amount of NOx production. READ MORE

  3. 8. Fronts and instabilities in laser ablation, organic semiconductors and quantum media

    Author : Mikhail Modestov; Vitaly Bychkov; Mattias Marklund; Tito Mendonca; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; front; instability; deflagration; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : The concept of a front plays a decisive role in various elds in physics and beyond. In the present thesis we study key aspects of front dynamics and stability in the context of laser plasmas, organic semiconductors and quantum media. READ MORE

  4. 9. Numerical study of flame dynamics

    Author : Arkady Petchenko; Vitaly Bychkov; Leonid Kagan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; combustion; Direct Numerical Simulation DNS ; turbulence; flame-vortex interaction; flame acceleration; flame-acoustic interaction; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Modern industrial society is based on combustion with ever increasing standards on the efficiency of burning. One of the main combustion characteristics is the burning rate, which is influenced by intrinsic flame instabilities, external turbulence and flame interaction with walls of combustor and sound waves.

  5. 10. Radioanalytical chemistry in emergency preparedness

    Author : Ulrika Nygren; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry of Interfaces; Gränsytors kemi;

    Abstract : Radioactive nuclides present a potential health hazard due to the ionising radiation emitted during their decay. The release of large amounts of radioactive nuclides is of concern both for man and the environment. READ MORE
