The present work quantifies the impact of fuel chemistry on burning modes using premixed dimethyl ether (DME), ethanol (EtOH) and methane flames in a back-to-burnt opposed jet configuration. The study considers equivalence ratios 0 ≤ Φ ≤ 1, resulting in a Damköhler (Da) number range 0.06 ≤ Da ≤ 5.1. Multi-scale turbulence (Re ≃ 19,550 and Ret ≃ 360...
Aimed to intensify the ignition and combustion process of n-butane fuel in micro internal combustion (IC) engines, ignition delay characteristics of n-butane/air mixtures with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) addition ratios below 10% were investigated numerically by CHEMKIN-PRO software. Results show that ignition delay times of n-butane can be sho...

With the dimensionless parameters obtained for syngas/air mixture, Bradley detonation peninsula is often used to determine the detonation development for hotspot autoignition (AI) in reactive flows. In this work, similar numerical simulations were carried out in order to identify the characteristics of detonation peninsula when considering other fu...

The present work focuses on new measurement of laminar burning velocities of ethanol-air mixtures at 1 atm pressure and elevated mixture temperatures using an externally heated meso-scale diverging channel technique. The burning velocity measurements were carried out for a temperature range of 350-620 K and equivalence ratio range of 0.7-1.3. Vario...

Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) results in combination with first-order Conditional Moment Closure (CMC) are presented for a hydrogen jet, diluted with nitrogen, issued into a turbulent co-flowing hot air stream. The fuel mixes with the co-flow air, ignites and forms a lifted-like flame. Global trends in the experimental observations are in general wel...
