Combustion
Author: J. Warnatz
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662045087
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
This book provides a rigorous treatment of the coupling of chemical reactions and fluid flow. Combustion-specific topics of chemistry and fluid mechanics are considered and tools described for the simulation of combustion processes. This edition is completely restructured. Mathematical Formulae and derivations as well as the space-consuming reaction mechanisms have been replaced from the text to appendix. A new chapter discusses the impact of combustion processes on the atmosphere, the chapter on auto-ignition is extended to combustion in Otto- and Diesel-engines, and the chapters on heterogeneous combustion and on soot formation are heavily revised.

Laser-Based Flowfield Imaging in a Lean Premixed Prevaporized Sector Combustor
Author: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781720609841
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
OH and fuel planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) is used qualitatively in this study to observe the flame structure resultant from different fuel injector dome configurations within the 3-cup sector combustor test rig. The fluorescence images are compared with some computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results. Interferences in obtaining OH fluorescence signals due to the emission of other species are assessed. NO PLIF images are presented and compared to gas analysis results. The comparison shows that PLIF NO can be an excellent method for measuring NO in the flame. Additionally, we present flow visualization of the molecular species C2.Hicks, Yolanda R. and Locke, Randy J. and Anderson, Robert C.Glenn Research CenterCOMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS; FLOW DISTRIBUTION; LASER INDUCED FLUORESCENCE; PREMIXING; COMBUSTION CHAMBERS; PREVAPORIZATION; GAS ANALYSIS; FUEL INJECTION; DETECTORS; CCD CAMERAS; LASER BEAMS; HYDROXIDES; NITROGEN OXIDES; IMAGE ANALYSIS; LASER APPLICATIONS
