Numerical Simulation About Fuel Injection Source Location Impacting On Turbulent Combustion Process, Sun Hui, Guangcheng Cai, Jiang Lin, Shibo Wang

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Fuel injection source location has very important influence on combustion process. It determines the location of the furnace flame. The three dimensional model of the furnace was established by the numerical simulation method. Under different conditions, the fuel injection source location on the temperature field within the furnace, the pollutant concentration field, and the flow field distribution inside the furnace combustion process were investigated. The results were compared and analyzed. After analysis, the results show that the fuel injection source location from 1.1 ~ 1.5 meter process of change, the average temperature within the furnace continue to rise, the …

Computational Analysis Of A New Planar Mixing Layer Flame Configuration To Study Soot Inception, Carmen Ciardiello

Honors Scholar Theses

The production of soot is omnipresent in society today. Soot is the product of many of the combustion processes that provide the bulk of the usable energy throughout the world. Furthermore, soot particulate poses a great danger to both the environment and all forms of life on Earth. It has proven to pollute ecosystems, foster health problems for human beings, and degrade air quality [1].

These dangers make studying and understanding soot particulate paramount for improving the quality of life. Thus, this study introduces a new flame configuration for studying soot inception. Presently, various common flame configurations have been found …
