The baffle shape is changed by various fuel and hole sizes. The numerical simulations based on different geometric conditions are performed by using the Reynolds Stress Model. The fuel-air mixing is greatly affected by flow recirculations. The centrally located flow recirculation has an important role for the entire mixing performance. The results show that this feature depends on the baffle configurations, and the baffle with small air holes represents efficient characters.展开更多

In order to analyze the effects of noncircular inlet, the cross section of inlet are selected as circular, square, and equilateral triangular shape. The jet half-width, vorticity thickness, and developments of the secondary flow are presented. From the result, it is confirmed that the secondary flows of square and equilateral triangular nozzle are more vigorous than that of the circular jet. This development of secondary flows is closely related to the variations of vortical motions in axial and azimuthal directions.展开更多
