Tungsten combustion in impact initiated W-Al composite based on W(Al) super-saturated solid solution

Element W can effectively improve the density of energetic structural materials. However, W is an inert element and does not combust in air. To change the reaction characteristics of W, 60 at.% Al was introduced into W through mechanical alloying. XRD analysis shows that after 50 h of ball milling, the diffraction peak of Al completely disappears and W(Al60) super-saturated solid solution powder is obtained. Further observation by HAADF and HRTEM reveals that the W(Al60) super-saturated solid solution powder is a mixture of solid solution and amorphous phase. Based on the good thermal stability of W(Al60) alloy powder below 1000℃, W(Al60)-Al composite was synthesized by hot pressing process.Impact initiation experiments suggest that the W(Al60)-Al composite has excellent reaction characteristics, and multiple types of tungsten oxides are detected in the reaction products, showing that the modified W is combustible in air. Due to the combustion of tungsten, the energy release rate of the W(Al60)-Al composite at speed of 1362 m/s reaches 2.71 kJ/g.

Statistical model for combustion of high-metal magnesium-based hydro-reactive fuel

We investigate experimentally and analytically the combustion behavior of a high-metal magnesium-based hydro- reactive fuel under high temperature gaseous atmosphere. The fuel studied in this paper contains 73% magnesium powders. An experimental system is designed and experiments are carried out in both argon and water vapor atmo- spheres. It is found that the burning surface temperature of the fuel is higher in water vapor than that in argon and both of them are higher than the melting point of magnesium, which indicates the molten state of magnesium particles in the burning surface of the fuel. Based on physical considerations and experimental results, a mathematical one-dimensional model is formulated to describe the combustion behavior of the high-metal magnesium-based hydro-reactive fuel. The model enables the evaluation of the burning surface temperature, the burning rate and the flame standoff distance each as a function of chamber pressure and water vapor concentration. The results predicted by the model show that the burning rate and the surface temperature increase when the chamber pressure and the water vapor concentration increase, which are in agreement with the observed experimental trends.

双燃烧室冲压发动机增强燃烧及发动机性能研究

为深入理解双燃烧室冲压发动机(DCR)增强燃烧机理,以超燃冲压发动机(SCR)为参照,基于CFD数值模拟技术对两类发动机进行了性能对比。燃料选用煤油C12H23,当量比0.8,采用六组分四步化学反应机理。结果表明,DCR能够增强燃烧并提高燃烧效率,且马赫数升高后,其提升效果不降反升。DCR增强燃烧机理在于两点:一是亚燃室的高温高压有效缩短了点火延迟进而促进了燃烧;二是其特殊的“三明治”火焰结构,反应区可同时向内外两个维度传播燃烧,反应面积大幅增大使得燃烧效率更高。DCR也能够提升发动机性能,但当马赫数升高后,由于DCR总压损失明显增大,其性能提升优势有所减弱。

冲压发动机燃烧室超声速来流横向喷雾轨迹预测模型及动态特性分析研究

为探究超声速来流下圆柱横向射流轨迹及喷雾动态特性,在宽来流马赫数(Ma=1.50,2.02,3.09)条件下开展了不同喷嘴直径与喷注压力的煤油喷雾试验,通过纹影系统捕捉射流图像并进行外边界拟合与频谱分析。建立了考虑射流前激波效应的穿透深度预测模型,最大与平均相对误差较先前的预测模型分别下降约36%和19.1%。通过快速傅里叶变换分析,发现喷雾所受扰动以低频波为主,同时伴有时间特征较为复杂的波动。本征正交分解分析结果证明,喷雾表面同时存在高低频扰动,但低频波占据主导地位,高频波能量较低可被忽略,对应了快速傅里叶变换分析结果;低频波频率与来流有效韦伯数有关,有效韦伯数增大会使波长减小,当喷雾前端的来流速度差别较小时,频率就会增大。

Transient flameout process of boron-magnesium agglomerates during combustion in oxygen-rich atmospheres

In this study,boron–magnesium agglomerates with varying mass ratios were prepared by drying a micron-sized boron–magnesium mixed suspension,and the combustion process of these agglomerates under different oxygen-rich concentrations were investigated using a laser ignition system.The test results showed that when the mass fraction of magnesium powder in boron-magnesium agglomerates exceeded a certain threshold(between 2%and 5%),flame extinction and reignition occurred after a significant reduction in the agglomerate volume during combustion.This process is referred to as the transient flameout process,which is affected by the magnesium content of the agglomerate and the oxygen concentration in the ambient atmosphere.An increase in the magnesium content or oxygen concentration makes this phenomenon more pronounced.During weakening of the flame intensity,a dark film gradually covered the particle surfaces.X-ray diffraction and elemental analyses of the cross-section and outer surface of the condensed combustion product suggested that the dark film is primarily composed of Mg-B-O ternary oxides.This film prevents direct contact between boron and oxygen,thereby inhibiting surface and gas-phase reactions and leading to the occurrence of the transient flameout phenomenon.

硼基粉末燃料冲压发动机掺混燃烧特性研究

针对硼基粉末燃料冲压发动机超声速燃烧组织难题,建立气-固两相掺混燃烧方法,开展典型工况(26 km,Ma=6.0)的数值仿真研究,得到了发动机燃烧室内的流动燃烧特性,仿真分析了粉末燃料喷注速度、燃料颗粒粒径以及凹腔结构对燃烧室内气-固两相掺混燃烧情况的影响。结果表明:粉末燃料点火温度是影响燃料掺混燃烧效率的关键因素,当粉末喷注于气相燃烧高温区时,可显著提高燃烧效率;合理的喷注速度有利于增强颗粒与燃气和来流的掺混程度,使得颗粒燃烧更充分;当颗粒粒径从5μm提高至20μm时,射流穿透深度显著增加,粒径5μm时粉末燃烧效率最高,随着粒径增大颗粒点火的难度提高,不利于燃料充分燃烧释热;凹腔结构形成的回流区可以形成较好的点火区域,对于粉末燃料及富燃燃气和超声速来流的掺混起到较好的增益效果,有利于提高燃烧效率。

Effect of mixing section configurations on combustion efficiency of Mg-CO_(2)Martian ramjet

Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of the mixing section configurations on the Mg-CO_(2)Martian ramjet combustion efficiency.It was carried out at a mainstream mass flow rate of 110 g/s and a temperature of 810 K.The chamber pressure was measured under different configurations and Oxidizer to Fuel(O/F)ratios.Results showed that the engine achieved self-sustaining combustion and worked stably during experiments.The pre-combustion chamber is needed to increase the combustion efficiency and promote the full combustion of the powder.After the configuration of the pre-combustion chamber,the best combustion efficiency reached 80%when radial powder injection and lateral carbon dioxide intake were used.In addition,the O/F ratio in the pre-combustion chamber decreased from 0.67 to 0.31,resulting in an 8%increase in the combustion efficiency.It was speculated that different mixing section configurations and the variations in an O/F ratio within the pre-combustion chamber impacted the combustion efficiency and in essence,all affected the flow velocity and residence time of the two-phase flow in the com-bustion chamber.

燃气喷注条件对中心支板式固体冲压发动机燃烧性能影响研究

Effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the combustion characteristics of boron agglomerates in oxygen-containing atmospheres

In ramjet combustion chambers,carbon dioxide(CO_(2))produced by the combustion of carbonaceous fuel enters the chamber together with boron agglomerates.In order to investigate the effect of CO_(2)concentration present in an oxygen-containing atmosphere on the combustion characteristics and oxidation mechanisms of boron agglomerates,we used a laser ignition system,an X-ray diffractometer(XRD),and a thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC)combined thermal analysis system.Single-particle boron was tested in the laser-ignition experiments as the control group.The ignition experiment results showed that with a fixed O2 concentration of 20%,when the particle temperature reaches the melting point of boron,increasing CO_(2)content causes the combustion process of boron agglomerates to transition from single-particle molten droplet combustion to porous-particle combustion.Furthermore,XRD analysis results indicated that the condensed-phase combustion products(CCPs)of boron particles in a mixed atmosphere of O2 and CO_(2)contained B4C,which is responsible for the porous structure of the particles.At temperatures below 1200℃,the addition of CO_(2)has no obvious promotion effect on boron exothermic reaction.However,in the laser-ignition experiment,when the oxygen concentration was fixed at 20%while the CO_(2)concentration increased from 0%to 80%,the maximum temperature of boron agglomerates rose from 2434 to 2573 K,the self-sustaining combustion time of single-particle boron decreased from 396 to 169 ms,and the self-sustaining combustion time of boron agglomerates decreased from 198 to 40 ms.This study conclusively showed that adding CO_(2)to an oxygen-containing atmosphere facilitates boron reaction and consumption pathways,which is beneficial to promoting exothermic reaction of boron agglomerates at relatively high temperatures.
