  • Effects of Dilution on Turbulent Consumption Speeds of Jet Fuel

    Creator:
    Walters, Ian
    Abstract:
    Combustion systems for transportation applications typically use large hydrocarbon fuels in turbulent premixed or partially premixed environments. Combustion products can enter the reaction region through natural recirculation or combustion control mechanisms. The objective of this study is to characterize how dilution by combustion products affects the turbulent consumption speed for...

  • Radiation Emissions from Turbulent Premixed Jet-A/Air Flames Diluted with Combustion Products

    Creator:
    Hoter, Zohar R.
    Abstract:
    Heat flux measurements of radiation emissions from turbulent premixed flames diluted with N 2 and CO 2 were taken to identify sensitivities of radiation heat loss to diluent fraction and species. This work is motivated by the desire to better characterise radiant heat transfer in the presence of combustion products,...

  • Effects of thermal stressing on the turbulent flame speed of jet fuel

    Creator:
    Alkhalifa, Ammar M.
    Abstract:
    Gas turbine engines for propulsion applications can use fuel as a coolant, exposing the fuel to high temperatures well within the ranges associated with thermal decomposition. Species produced as a result of these processes have been shown to correlate with changes in the combustion performance of the fuels. In this...
