Experimental measurements and numerical simulations were both conducted to study effects of unburned gases velocity on the formations and overall emissions of CO and NOx of the laminar premixed biogas-hydrogen impinging flame. Emission indexes (El) of CO and NOx and NO2/NOx ratio were obtained based on the measured data, while four major routes to produce the NO were isolated and calculated in the simulation. The results show that EICO is decreased with Re at small H, while it is increased with Re at large H. The thermal NO is improved with Re as the flame front is affected strongly by the cold plate, while it is suppressed at larger H due to the reduced residence time and relatively insufficient oxidizer. The N2O route is decreased with Re, while the increased NO amounts of prompt route and NNH route are dominated by the higher flame temperature and more available active radicals. The contributions of thermal route and N2O route are decreased with Re while that of prompt route and NNH route are increased. With the increased Re, EINO2 and NO2 /NOx ratio are decreased at small H but increased at large H. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Flexible syngas-biogas-hydrogen fueling spark-ignition engine behaviors with optimized fuel compositions and control parameters

Van Ga Bui, Thi Minh Tu Bui, Van Nam Tran, Zuohua Huang, Anh Tuan Hoang, Wieslaw Tarelko, Van Hung Bui, Xuan Mai Pham, Phuoc Quy Phong Nguyen

Summary: This paper presents the research results on the optimal fuel compositions and control parameters of a spark ignition engine fueled with syngas-biogas-hydrogen. The optimal content of hydrogen and biogas in the mixture is found to be 20% and 30% respectively. The advanced ignition angle differs between the hydrogen-syngas blend and the syngas-biogas blend, with the former having a lower angle. The engine's power decreases when switching from hydrogen or biogas fueling mode to syngas fueling mode, and there is a significant increase in NOx emissions.

Experimental investigation of low-temperature autoignition in turbulent premixed swirling flames

Wenjun Lin, Wang Han, Jinhua Wang, Runze Mao, Weijie Zhang, Xiao Cai, Zuohua Huang

Summary: The role of low-temperature chemistry/ignition (LTC/LTI) was studied in aero engine-like combustors with confined bluff-body and swirling flows. Experimental investigations were conducted on CH4/DME/air mixtures with varying DME volume fraction (αDME) to consider LTI. It was found that adding DME to lean CH4/air mixtures can introduce low-temperature flames (LTF) in the outer recirculation zone (ORZ) under certain conditions. The flame regimes were classified based on DME enrichment, and the possibility of using LTI to extend the stability margin of lean swirling flames was demonstrated.

Lewis number effects on laminar and turbulent expanding flames of NH3/H-2/air mixtures at elevated pressures

Hongchao Dai, Jinhua Wang, Xiao Cai, Shouguo Su, Haoran Zhao, Zuohua Huang

Summary: This study investigates the impact of Lewis number (Le) on laminar and turbulent expanding flames of NH3/H2/air mixtures. The results show that the laminar burning velocity (SL) is significantly affected by the diffusional-thermal instability, which dominates the trend of turbulent burning velocity (ST) with the equivalence ratio (φ) for lean mixtures. The turbulent flame of NH3/H2/air mixtures exhibits self-similar acceleration propagation, with faster propagation observed when Le < 1. A modified correlation considering the effects of Le is proposed, which accurately predicts the propagation of NH3/H2/air mixtures as well as other syngas/air flames.

Summary: In order to address the uncertainty in the calibration process of two-color plane laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) temperature measurement, a new calibration method is proposed, taking into account the influence of fluorescence yield. The calibration process is carried out at high and low temperature regions to restrain the bias originating from quenching. This new calibration method is validated in a jet flame with a temperature range of 1300-1800 K, and the results demonstrate its effectiveness in the combustion field, especially with a large temperature range and strong quenching coefficient.

Lihan Fei, Mengxiao Qin, Zuohua Huang, Chenglong Tang

Summary: The hypergolic ignition behaviors of three ionic liquids [BMIm]-[DCA], [EMIm][DCA], and [EMIm][CDB] reacting with white fuming nitric acid (WFNA) were investigated. Two distinct hypergolic ignition modes were observed, with vapor smoke and sudden ejection of liquids induced by microexplosion for [BMIm][DCA] and [EMIm][DCA] and monotonic increase in temperature before ignition for [EMIm][CDB]. The time scales of vapor delay, explosion delay, and ignition delay decreased with the increase of droplet impact velocity.

Experimental study of H2/air turbulent expanding flames over wide equivalence ratios: Effects of molecular transport

Haoran Zhao, Gang Li, Jinhua Wang, Zuohua Huang

Summary: In this study, the turbulent expanding flames of hydrogen/air mixtures were investigated over a wide range of equivalence ratios using a fan-stirred combustion chamber. The effects of molecular transport on turbulent flame propagation were analyzed, including flame morphology, turbulent burning velocity, and their correlations. It was found that the wrinkled degree of the turbulent flame surface was stronger under fuel-lean conditions and the flame morphology became more wrinkled as it propagated outwardly. The peak turbulent burning velocity occurred at fuel-lean conditions and the effects of molecular transport were enhanced under intense turbulent field.

Weijie Zhang, Wang Han, Jinhua Wang, Zuohua Huang, Wu Jin, Jeroen van Oijen

Summary: This study models the Darmstadt multi-regime turbulent flame MRB26b using the Flamelet-Generated Manifold (FGM) in the context of Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Different databases are used to build premixed, non-premixed, and partially premixed chemical databases, and the LES-FGM results are compared with experimental data using two sub-filter closure models. The results show that the databases lead to similar modelling of major species but better predict intermediate minor species using counter-flow flame databases. The study also reveals the over-prediction of minor species using the DTF model and proposes a correction method for improvement.

Structure and propagation of spherical turbulent iron-methane hybrid flame at elevated pressure

Xiao Cai, Shouguo Su, Limin Su, Jinhua Wang, Marcus Alden, Zhongshan Li, Zuohua Huang

Summary: In this study, the role of turbulence intensity in the dual-front structure and self-similar propagation of spherical turbulent iron-methane hybrid flames is demonstrated. It is found that intense turbulence can cause the strong burning of iron-methane hybrid mixture with separated dual-front or merged single-front structures. The formation of iron flame front is attributed to local iron concentration accumulation, enhanced heat transfer of iron particles, and mixing promotion of iron particles with oxidants by strong turbulence. Additionally, strong self-similar propagation of the hybrid flame is observed under different turbulence intensities, which is influenced by flame mode transition and differential diffusion.

Nonlinear dynamic characteristics of self-excited thermoacoustic instabilities in premixed swirling flames

Longjuan Ji, Jinhua Wang, Weijie Zhang, Deli Li, Guangya Hu, Zuohua Huang

Summary: The nonlinear behavior of thermoacoustic oscillation for premixed swirl flames fueled with CH4/air mixtures is experimentally studied. The study reveals the effects of changing equivalence ratio phi, combustor inlet bulk velocity Uin, and swirl number S on the flame modes and oscillations. The study also shows the relationship between the appearance of flame in the outer circulation zone and the occurrence of quasi-periodic and limit cycle oscillations. Furthermore, the study finds that the lean/rich blow-off limits and oscillation range are extended with a larger S, while the stable combustion regime is wider with a smaller S.

Zhang Ruan, Lianzhong Huang, Kai Wang, Ranqi Ma, Zhongyi Wang, Rui Zhang, Haoyang Zhao, Cong Wang

Summary: This paper proposes a grey box model for fuel consumption prediction of wing-diesel hybrid vessels based on feature construction. By using both parallel and series grey box modeling methods and six machine learning algorithms, twelve combinations of prediction models are established. A feature construction method based on the aerodynamic performance of the wing and the energy relationship of the hybrid system is introduced. The best combination is obtained by considering the root mean square error, and it shows improved accuracy compared to the white box model. The proposed grey box model can accurately predict the daily fuel consumption of wing-diesel hybrid vessels, contributing to operational optimization and the greenization and decarbonization of the shipping industry.
