  2. 11. Modeling Auto-Ignition, Flame Propagation and Combustion in Non-Stationary Turbulent Sprays

    Author : Anders Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; auto-ignition; transient; flame propagation; turbulence; spray formation; prediction; stirred reactor approximation; model; reduced chemistry; combustion;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on detailed numerical studies of spray formation, auto-ignition, envelope flame development and combustion in a simple two-dimensional axi-symmetric geometry. A Lagrangian -- Eulerian formulation is used to analyze the droplet motion and gas flow field. READ MORE

  4. 12. 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

  5. 13. Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Combustion in PPC and Diesel Engines

    Author : Rickard Solsjö; Strömningsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; large eddy simulation LES ; turbulent spray combustion; Lagrangian particle tracking LPT ; diesel engines; partially premixed combustion PPC engines.;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with large eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent combustion processes in direct injection internal combustion (IC) engines. Modeling of direct injection IC engine combustion involves modeling of turbulent spray/gas two-phase flow, modeling of chemical reactions of large hydrocarbon fuels and coupling of chemistry with turbulent flows.

  6. 14. Laser Diagnostics Applied to Lean Premixed Swirling Flames - Simultaneous Flow Field and Scalar Measurements

    Author : Per Petersson; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Volumetric Velocimetry; Low-swirl Flames; Premixed Flames; Turbulent Combustion; Particle Image Velocimetry; Laser Diagnostics; A.2014:Petersson; Combustion Diagnostics;

    Abstract : The work reported here includes experimental studies of lean premixed swirling flames. Various laser-based optical diagnostic techniques were used to collect information under different operational conditions. Combined flow- and scalar field measurements were performed at high repetition rates for detailed studies of the turbulent flames. READ MORE

  7. 15. Experimental studies of turbulent flames at gas turbine relevant burners and operating conditions

    Author : Xin Liu; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent Combustion; Gas Turbine; Laser diagnostic; Fuel flexibility; Plasma-assisted combustion; Ammonia flame; High pressure;

    Abstract : With the increasing demand of using alternative and renewable fuels, it becomes of vital importance to consider the fuel flexibility when designing a new burner for gas turbines. Hydrogen-enriched fuel and ammonia are two of these potential fuels, and they can significantly change the operability range of the gas turbines. READ MORE
