Moderate or intense low oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion has been established as a regime with improved thermal efficiency and decreased pollutant emissions, including NOx soot. MILD the subject of numerous experimental studies, presents challenge for computational modeling due to strong turbulence–chemistry coupling within homogeneous reaction zone. Models flames in jet hot coflow (JHC) burner have typically had limited success using eddy dissipation concept (EDC) model, which incorporates...
Moderate or Intense Low oxygen Dilution (MILD) combustion is a promising technology that offers high thermal efficiency and low pollutant emissions. This study investigates the MILD characteristics of pulverized coal in laboratory-scale self-recuperative furnace. High-volatile Kingston brown low-volatile Bowen basin black with particle sizes range 38–180 μm were injected into furnace using either CO2 N2 as carrier gas. A water-cooled sampling probe was used to conduct in-furnace gas...
A numerical study of pulverized coal combustion under Moderate or Intense Low oxygen Dilution (MILD) conditions is presented in a parallel jet self-recuperative MILD furnace. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes equations, three-dimensional axisymmetric furnace domain, were solved using the Eddy Dissipation Concept model for turbulence–chemistry interaction. main aim this to understand influence devolatilization models on prediction accuracy conditions. In particular, three are analyzed:...
This work aims to advance understanding of the coupling between temperature and soot. The ability image using two-line atomic fluorescence (TLAF) technique is demonstrated. Previous TLAF theory extended from linear excitation into nonlinear fluence regime. Nonlinear regime (NTLAF) provides superior signal reduces single-shot uncertainty 250 K for conventional down 100 K. NTLAF shown resolve profile across stoichiometric envelope hydrogen, ethylene, natural gas flames, with deviation...
This paper reports computational results, to complement experimental observations, on the turbulence–chemistry interaction of nonpremixed jet flames issuing into a heated and highly diluted oxidant stream. It is found experimentally that large-scale vortices flame stretch can lead spatial thinning decrease in OH concentration. reduction described as weakening reaction zone. Accompanying zone also an increase H2CO levels. The rates most noticeable at low stream O2 oxygen conditions typify...
Lifted flames have attracted significant research over many years due to the importance of fundamental understanding stabilization mechanism. More recently, lifted in a hot coflow been used investigate autoignition properties jet flames. Several experimental and numerical studies predict autoignitive liftoff characteristics vitiated recently appeared literature. The configuration issuing into heated diluted oxidant stream can also emulate operating conditions MILD combustion. This paper...
