球形罐中丙烷—空气混合气火焰传播特性分析

为了研究不同当量比时丙烷—空气混合气火焰的微观结构、加速传播过程,利用高速纹影等技术对火焰传播过程进行了拍摄,对不同当量比条件下的火焰传播规律进行分析及对比,特别地分析了预混火焰中形成的特殊火焰结构——Tulip的形成过程。研究结果表明,在富燃情况下,火焰传播特性明显受点火能量的影响,浮力也会改变火焰传播过程。当浮力降低且火焰半径增长速率急速下降时,Tulip火焰结构开始形成。

Three-Dimensional Modes of Fiber Suspensions in the Taylor-Couette Flow

The linear stability analysis of the fiber suspension Taylor-Couette flow against axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric disturbances is investigated. A generalized complex eigenvalue problem generated from the linearized set of the three-dimensional governing system equations around the basic Couette azimuthal solution are solved numerically with the Chebyshev spectral method. In a wide range of radius ratios and the magnitudes of counter rotating, critical bifurcation thresholds from the axisymmetric Couette flow to the flow with different azimuthal wave numbers are obtained. The complex dispersion relations of the linearized stability equation system for vortex patterns with different azimuthal wave number are calculated for real axial wave numbers for axially extended vortex structures.

Non-axisymmetric instability in the Taylor-Couette flow of fiber suspension

An analysis of the instability in the Taylor-Couette flow of fiber suspensions with respect to the non-axisymmetric disturbances was performed. The constitutive model proposed by Ericksen was used to represent the role of fiber additives on the stress tensor. The generalized eigenvalue equation governing the hydrodynamic stability of the system was solved using a direct numerical procedure. The results showed that the fiber additives can suppress the instability of the flow. At the same time, the non-axisymmetric disturbance is the preferred mode that makes the fiber suspensions unstable when the ratio of the angular ve- locity of the outer cylinder to that of the inner cylinder is a large negative number.
