Feasibility of Lorentz mixing to enhance combustion in supersonic diffusion flames

Creator:

Nahorniak, Matthew T.

Abstract:

The purpose of this research was to determine if it is feasible to apply Lorentz mixing to supersonic diffusion flames, such as those found in SCRAMjet engines. The combustion rate in supersonic diffusion flames is limited by the rate at which air and fuel mix. Lorentz mixing increases turbulence within...
