In this paper, a high speed camera was used to investigate the ignition kernel development, ignition probability and flame propagation along the axis of hydrogen jets, which leaked from a 3-ram-internal-diameter nozzle and were ignited by an electric spark. Experimental results indicate that for successful ignition events, the ignition delay time increases with an increase of the distance between the nozzle and the electrode. Ignitable zone of the hydrogen jets is underestimated if using the predicted hydrogen concentration along the jets centerline. The average rate of downstream flame decreases but that of the upstream flame increases with the electrode going far from the nozzle.展开更多

The dry air flow (adiabatic flow) and the humid air flow (flow with homogeneous condensation, diabatic flow) are modeled with the use of Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. The comparison of these two types of flow is carried out. The influence of the air humidity on the shock wave location and its interaction with the boundary layer is examined. Obtained numerical results present a first numerical approach of the condensation and evaporation process in transonic flow of humid air. The phenomena considered here are very complex and complicated and need further in-depth numerical analysis.展开更多

Swirl cup, as an air blast atomizer, is widely used to provide a uniform presentation of fuel droplets to the combustor dome. This paper investigated the effect of secondary swirler on the flow field down- stream of the swirl cup using particle image velocimetry (PIV). Three swirl cups' non-reacting flow field were studied: case A, B and C with secondary swirler vane angle 53°, 60° and 68° respectively. Detailed mean and transient velocities and vorticity in the center plane were obtained. From the PIV results, a sharp contrast flow field was obtained for case A to other two cases due to the lower secondary swirling intensity. The recirculation zone is collapsed in disorder for the case A. Ignition tests of the three cups were completed in a single cup com- bustor. In general, the ignition performance increases with the increasing of the secondary swirling intensity. For case A, the ignition performance is very unstable and has much randomness and there is no clear lean ignition boundary can be generated. This work can further understand the swirl behavior and ignition mechanism.展开更多
