Abstract: | Effect of content of hydrogen (H2) in fuel stream, mole fraction of H2 in fuel composition, and velocity of fuel and co-flow air on the flame characteristics of a co-flow H2/N2 laminar diffusion flame is investigated in this paper. Co-flow burner of Toro et al. [1] is used as a model geometry in which the governing conservation transport equations for mass, momentum, energy, and species are numerically solved in a segregated manner with finite rate chemistry. GRI3 reaction mechanisms are selected along with the weight sum of grey gas radiation (WSGG) and Warnatz thermo-diffusion models. Reliability of the newly generated CFD (computational fluid dynamics) model is initially examined and validated with the experimental results of Toro et al. [1]. Then, the method of investigation is focused on a total of 12 flames with varying between 0.25 and 1, and between 0.25 and 1 ms?1. Increase of flame size, flame temperature, chemistry heat release, and NOx emission formation resulted are affected by the escalation of either or . Significant effect on the flame temperature and NOx emission are obtained from a higher in fuel whereas the flame size and heat release are the result of increasing . Along with this finding, the role of N2 and its higher content reducing the flame temperature and NOx emission are presented. |
