Flue gas recirculation (FGR) is a method widely adopted to control NO x in combustion system. The recirculated flue gas decreases flame temperature and reaction rate, resulting in the decrease
in thermal NO production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the recirculated flue gas in fuel stream, that is, the fuel
induced recirculation (FIR), could enhance a much improved reduction in NO x per unit mass of recirculated gas, as compared to the conventional FGR in air. In the present study, the effect of FGR/FIR
methods on NO x reduction in turbulent swirl flames by using N 2 and CO 2 as diluent gases to simulate flue gases. Results show that CO 2 dilution is more effective in NO reduction because of large temperature drop due to the larger specific heat of CO 2 compared to N 2 and FIR is more effective to reduce NO emission than FGR when the same recirculation ratio of dilution gas is used. 相似文献

of dilution methods in air and fuel sides on NO reduction has been investigated numerically by using N3 and CO2 as diluent
gases to simulate flue gases. Counterflow diffusion flames were studied in conjunction with the laminar flamelet model of
turbulent flames. Results showed that CO2 dilution was more effective in NO reduction because of large temperature drop due
to the larger specific heat of CO2 compared to N 2. Fuel dilution was more effective in reducing NO emission than air dilution when the same recirculation ratio of dilution
gas was used by the increase in the nozzle exit velocity, thereby the stretch rate, with dilution gas added to fuel side. 相似文献

This work investigates the electric field effect on gas temperature, radiative heat flux and flame speed of premixed CH 4/O 2/N 2 flames in order to gain a better insight into the mechanism of controlling the combustion process by electrophysical means.
Experiments were performed on laminar Bunsen flames (Re<2200) of lean to rich mixture composition (φ =0.8–1.2) with slight
oxygen enrichment (Ω=0.21-0.30). The Schlieren flame angle technique was used to determine the flame speed, and thermocouple
measurements at the post flame gas were conducted. The radiative heat flux was measured by using a heat flux meter. At high
field strengths, coincident with the appearance and enhancement of flame surface curvatures, an apparent change in flame speed
and gas temperature was observed. However, the application of an electric field had no significant effect on flame speed and
temperature when the flame geometry was unaltered. This was supported by radiative heat flux showing negligible electric field
effects. The modification in flame temperature and flame speed under electric field was attributed to the field-induced flame
stretch due to the body forces produced by the ionic winds. This additional flame stretch, coupled with the influence of non-unity
Lewis number, accounts for such changes. This reinforces the idea that the action of an electric field on flames with a geometry
that remains practically undeformed produces very minimal effect on flame speed, temperature and radiative heat flux. A possible
mechanism of combustion control by the application of flame stretch using electric field was introduced. 相似文献

Structure and thermal NO x formation of hydrogen diffusion flames are studied numerically, by adopting a counterflow as a model problem. Detailed kinetic
mechanism having twenty-one step hydrogen oxidation is systematically reduced to a two-step mechanism while five-step thermal
NO x chemistry of the extended Zel'dovich mechanism is reduced to one-step. Results show that the extinction strain rates are
much higher than those for hydrocarbon flames and the NO x production can be controlled by increasing strain rates which results in the decrease of flame temperature significantly.
Comparison between the results of the detailed and reduced mechanisms demonstrates that the reduced mechanism successully
describes the essential features of hydrogen diffusion flames including the flame structure, extinction strain rate and NO x production. 相似文献

The effect of fuel concentration gradient on the propagation characteristics of tribrachial (or triple) flames has been investigated
experimentally in both two-dimensional and axisymmetric counterflows. The gradient at the stoichiometric location was controlled
by the equivalence ratios at the two nozzles; one of which is maintained rich, while the other lean. Results show that the
displacement speed of tribrachial flames in the two-dimensional counterflow decreases with fuel concentration gradient and
has much larger speed than the maximum speed predicted previously in two-dimensional mixing layers. From an analogy with premixed
flame propagation, this excessively large displacement speed can be attributed to the flame propagation with respect to burnt
gas. Corresponding maximum speed in the limit of small mixture fraction gradient was estimated and the curvefit of the experimental
data substantiates this limiting speed. As mixture fraction gradient approaches zero, a transition occurs, such that the propagation
speed of tribrachial flame approaches stoichiometric laminar burning velocity with respect to burnt gas. Similar results have
been obtained for tribrachial flames propagating in axisymmetric counterflow. 相似文献

This paper presents the effects of the temperature difference between gas and particle, different Lewis numbers, and heat
loss from the walls in the structure of premixed flames propagation in a combustible system containing uniformly distributed
volatile fuel particles in an oxidizing gas mixture. It is assumed that the fuel particles vaporize first to yield a gaseous
fuel, which is oxidized in a gas phase. The analysis is performed in the asymptotic limit, where the value of the characteristic
Zeldovich number is large. The structure of the flame is composed of a preheat zone, reaction zone, and convection zone. The
governing equations and required boundary conditions are applied in each zone, and an analytical method is used for solving
these equations. The obtained results illustrate the effects of the above parameters on the variations of the dimensionless
temperature, particle mass friction, flame temperature, and burning velocity for gas and particle. 相似文献

To clarify the effect of chemical structure of Dimethyl ether(DME) on NOx formation in nonpremixed counterflow flame, DME
flame was investigated numerically to compare the flame structures and NOx emissions with C 2H 6 and Mixed-fuel. Numerically, the governing equations were solved using the Oppdif code coupled with CHEMKIN package, and
DME flames were calculated by Kaiser’s mechanism, while the C 2H 6 flames and Mixed-fuel flames were calculated by the C 3 mechanism. These mechanisms were combined with the modified Miller-Bowman mechanism for the analysis of NOx. Numerical results
of nonpremixed counterflow flames show that the EI NO of DME nonpremixed flame is low as much as 50 % of the C 2H 6 nonpremixed flame. The cause of EI NO reduction is attributed mainly to the characteristics of partial premixed flame due to the existence of oxygen atom in DME
and partly to the O-C bond in DME, instead of C-C bond in hydrocarbon fuels.

This paper addresses the characteristics of flame shapes and flame length in three types of coaxial air flames realizable
by varying coaxial air and/or fuel velocity. Forcing coaxial air into turbulent jet flames induces substantial changes in
flame shapes and NOx emissions through the complex flow interferences that exist within the mixing region. Mixing enhancement
driven by coaxial air results in flame volume decrease, and such a diminished flame volume finally reduces NOx emissions significantly
by decreasing NOx formation zone where a fuel/air mixture burns. It is found that mixing in the vicinity of high temperature
zone mainly results from the increase of diffusive flux than the convective flux, and that the increase of mass diffusion
is amplified as coaxial air is increased. Besides, it is reaffirmed that non-equilibrium chemistry including HO 2/H 2O 2 should be taken into account for NOx prediction and scaling analysis by comparing turbulent combustion models. In addition,
it is found that coaxial air can break down the self-similarity law of flames by changing mixing mechanism, and that EINOx
scaling parameters based on the self-similarity law of simple jet flames may not be eligible in coaxial air flames.

Pressure dependence of mass burning of diluted hydrogen premixed flames is studied numerically over a full range of pressure. Mass burning rate is selected to be a parameter for burning capability of flames. First, positive linear dependence of mass burning rate has been confirmed at low pressures and negative pressure dependence has appeared in the medium range of pressure, which complies with the results reported in previous experimental works. And then, when the pressure range is extended more, positive pressure dependence is recovered or shows up again at high pressures. The flame structures of temperature and species profiles in each pressure regime are demonstrated. They show that the latter two dependences of negative and positive can be explained by enhanced recombination reactions producing HO 2 at high pressures and chain re-branching to OH production via H 2O 2, respectively. There are three distinct dependences of mass burning or global chemistry in hydrogen flames. Two onset pressures, at which pressure dependence changes, depend on equivalence ratio, degree of dilution, diluent species, and unburned-gas temperature. Accordingly, the onset pressure can be used as a parameter characterizing burning of premixed flames. 相似文献

The flame structure, extinction, and NO x emission characteristics of syngas/air nonpremixed flames, have been investigated numerically. The extinction stretch rate
increased with the increase in the hydrogen proportion in the syngas and with lower fuel dilution and higher initial temperature.
It also increased with pressure, except for the case of highly diluted fuel at high pressure. The maximum temperature and
the emission index of nitric oxides (EINO x) also increased in aforementioned conditions. The EINO x decreased with stretch rate in general, while the decreasing rate was found to be somewhat different between the cases of
N 2 and CO 2 dilutions. The reaction paths of NO x formation were analyzed and represented as NO reaction path diagram. The increase in N radical resulted in larger NO x production at high initial temperature and pressure. As the pressure increases, EINO x increases slower due to the third-body recombination. The thermal NO mechanism is weakened for high dilution cases and non-thermal
mechanisms prevail. The combustion conditions achieving higher extinction stretch rate can be lead to more NO x emission, therefore that the selection of optimum operation range is needed in syngas combustion. 相似文献

This study investigates the nonpreximed H 2/CO-air turbulent flames numerically. The turbulent combustion process is represented by a reaction progress variables model coupled with the presumed joint probability function. In the present study, the turbulent combustion model is applied to analyze the nonadiabatic flames by introducing additional variable in the transport equation of enthalpy and the radiative heat loss is calculated using a local, geometry independent model. Calculation are compared with experimental data in terms of temperature, and mass fraction of major species, radical, and NO. Numerical results indicate that the lower and higher fuel-jet velocity flames have the distinctly different flame structures and NO formation characteristics in the proximity of the outer core vortex zone. The present model correctly predicts the essential features of flame structure and the characteristics of NO formation in the bluff-body stabilized flames. The effects of nonequilibrium chemistry and radiative heat loss on the thermal NO formation are discussed in detail. 相似文献

Mild combustion is characterized by its distinguished features, such as suppressed pollutant emission, homogeneous temperature distribution, reduced noise, and thermal stress. Recently, many studies have revealed the potential of MILD combustion in various power systems but most studies have been focused on gas phase fuel MILD combustion. Therefore, further study on MILD combustion using liquid fuel is needed for the application to a liquid-fueled gas turbine especially. In this work, we studied experimentally on the formation of liquid fuel MILD combustion under the condition of high dilution by burnt gas generated from a first premixed flame in two stages combustor which consists of the first premixed burner and secondary combustor. In particular, the effects of burnt gas velocity and oxygen level of burnt gas on the formation of liquid fuel MILD combustion were investigated. The results show that as the burnt gas velocity through the nozzle becomes higher, the color of flames was changed from yellow to pale blue and flames became very short. The OH radical measured by ICCD camera was uniformly distributed on the pale blue flame surface and its intensity was very low compared to conventional liquid diffusion flame. As burnt gas velocity is increased, local high-temperature region appeared to be diminished and the flame temperature became spatially uniform. And CO emission was sampled around 1 ppm and NOx emission was measured around 10 ppm under the overall equivalence ratio of 0.8 to 0.98 for 40 mm or less diameter of velocity control nozzle. This low NOx emission seems to be attributed to maintaining the average temperature in secondary combustor below the threshold temperature of thermal NOx formation. In view of the uniform temperature distribution, low OH radical intensity and low NOx emission data in the secondary combustor, formation of stable MILD combustion using kerosene liquid fuel could be verified at high burnt gas velocity. 相似文献

In order to investigate the effect of buoyancy on soot formation in gas-jet diffusion flame, we conducted one set of experiments
with the High-Temperature Air Combustion Technology (HiCOT) system and another set under partial gravity conditions. Ethylene
(C 2H 4) was used as fuel, and soot volume fractions for the flame were observed as shadow graph images with backlight. In the experiment
with the HiCOT, the oxygen concentrations were O 2 = 15 %, 17 %, and 23 %, with constant flame temperature and surrounding air temperatures of 1100 K, 900 K, and 300 K, respectively.
We found that the soot volume fraction in the flames increased with the increase of the oxidizer temperature. In the partial
gravity experiment meant to identify the buoyant effect, the results showed that the soot volume fraction depended on the
gravity level. These results imply that soot formation in a gas-jet diffusion flame with the HiCOT is strongly affected by
the buoyant flow due to oxidizer flow into the soot formation field. 相似文献

Diode laser sensor is conducted to measure the gas temperature in the liquid-gas 2-phase counter flow flame. C 10H 22 and city gas were used as liquid fuel and gas fuel, respectively. Two vibrational overtones of H 2O were selected and measurements were carried out in the spray flame region stabilized the above gaseous premixed flame. The
path-averaged temperature measurement using diode laser absorption method succeeded in the liquid fuel combustion environment
regardless of droplets of wide range diameter. The path-averaged temperature measured in the post flame of liquid-gas 2-phase
counter flow flame showed qualitative reliable results. The successful demonstration of time series temperature measurement
in the liquid-gas 2-phase counter flow flame gave us motivation of trying to establish the effective control system in practical
combustion system. These results demonstrated the ability of real-time feedback from combustor inside using the non-intrusive
measurement as well as the possibility of application to practical combustion system. Failure case due to influence of spray
flame was also discussed. 相似文献

Number density and concentration of nitric oxide have been investigated in laminar premixed CH 4/O 2/N 2 flames using laser-induced fluorescence technique. Emphasis was placed on quantitative measurements, which were taken in flames at various equivalence ratios ranging from 0.9 ~ 3.0. The flow rate was fixed at 2 SLPM. The NO A-X (0,0) vibrational band around 226 nm was excited using a XeCl excimer-pumped dye laser. By selecting an appropriate NO transition, the interferences from elastic scattering and O 2 fluorescence were minimized. Results show that the maximum NO concentration increased at the range of equivalence ratio from ? = 0.9 to 1.6, decreased from ? = 1.6 to 2.0 and slowly increased with increasing equivalence ratio above ? = 2.0. Also, the maximum NO concentration was at around the reaction zone. 相似文献

The extinction mechanisms of stretched premixed flames have been investigated numerically for the fuels of CH 4, C 3H 8, H 2, CO and for the mixture fuels of CH 4+H 2 and CO+H 2 by adopting symmetric double premixed flames in a counterflow configuration. The local equilibrium temperature concept was used as a measure of energy loss or gain in order to quantify the extinction mechanism by preferential diffusion and/or incomplete reaction. The energy loss ratio from preferential diffusion arising from non-unity Lewis number and the loss ratio from incomplete reaction were calculated at various equivalence ratios near flame extinction. The results showed that the extinction of lean H 2, CH 4, CH 4+H 2, CO+H 2, and rich C 3H 8 premixed flames was caused by incomplete reaction due to insufficient reaction time, indicating that the effective Lewis number was smaller than unity, while the effect of preferential diffusion resulted in energy gain. However, the extinction of rich H 2, CH 4, CH 4+H 2, CO+H 2, and lean C 3H 8 premixed flames was affected by the combined effects of preferential diffusion and incomplete reaction indicating that the effective Lewis number was larger than unity. In CO premixed flames, incomplete reaction was dominant in both lean and rich cases due to the effective Lewis number close to unity. The effect of H2 mixing to CO is found to be quite significant as compared to CH 4+H 2 cases, which can alter the flame behavior of CO flames to that of H 2. 相似文献

The characteristics of NOx emissions in pure hydrogen nonpremixed jet flames with coaxial air are analyzed numerically for
a wide range of coaxial air conditions. Among the models tested in simple nonpremixed jet flame, the one-half power scaling
law could be reproduced only by the Model C using the HO 2/H 2O 2 reaction, implying the importance of chemical nonequilibrium effect. The flame length is reduced significantly by augmenting
coaxial air, and could be represented as a function of the ratio of coaxial air to fuel velocity. Predicted EINOx scaling
showed a good concordance with experimental data, and the overall one-half power scaling was observed in coaxial flames with
Model C when flame residence time was defined with flame volume instead of a cubic of the flame length. Different level of
oxygen mass fraction at the stoichiometric surface was observed as coaxial air was increased. These different levels imply
that the coaxial air strengthens the nonequilibrium effect.

The effects of velocity boundary conditions on the structure of methane-air nonpremixed counterflow flames were investigated by two-dimensional numerical simulation. Two low global strain rates, 12 s −1 and 20 s −1, were considered for comparison with measurements. Buoyancy was confirmed to have strong effects on the flame structure at a low global strain rate. It was shown that the location where a top hat velocity profile was imposed is sensitive to the flame structure, and that the computed temperature along the centerline agrees well with the measurements when plug flow was imposed at the inner surface of the screen nearest the duct exit. 相似文献

A numerical study on soot deposition in ethylene diffusion flames has been conducted to elucidate the effect of thermophoresis
on soot particles under a microgravity environment. Time-dependent reactive-flow Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the
modeling of soot formation have been solved. The model was validated by comparing the simulation results with the previous
experimental data for a laminar diffusion flame of ethylene (C 2H 4) with enriched oxygen (35% O 2 + 65% N 2) along a solid wall. In particular, the effect of surrounding air velocity as a major calculation parameter has been investigated.
Especially, the soot deposition length defined as the transverse travel distance to the wall in the streamwise direction is
introduced as a parameter to evaluate the soot deposition tendency on the wall. The calculation result exhibits that there
existed an optimal air velocity for the early deposition of soot on the surface, which was in good agreement with the previous
experimental results. The reason has been attributed to the balance between the effects of the thermophoretic force and convective
motion.

Normal cardiac function is accomplished through a continuous energy supply provided by
mitochondria. Heart mitochondria are the major source of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species: superoxide
anion (O 2-) and nitric oxide (NO). NO production by mitochondrial NOS (mtNOS) is modified by metabolic
state and shows an exponential dependence on Δψ. The interaction between mtNOS and complexes I and IV
might be a mechanism involved in the regulation of mitochondrial NO production. NO exerts a high affinity,
reversible and physiological inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase activity. A second effect of NO on the respiratory
chain is accomplished through its interaction with ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase. The ability of
mtNOS to regulate mitochondrial O 2 uptake and O 2- and H 2O 2 productions through the interaction of NO with
the respiratory chain is named mtNOS functional activity. Together, heart mtNOS allows NO to optimize the
balance between cardiac energy production and utilization, and to regulate the steady-state concentrations of
other oxygen and nitrogen species. 相似文献
