Fuel-Rich Plume Combustion.
Abstract
Experiments are being performed using an axisymmetric gas generator ramjet. Axial and radial profiles of pressure, velocity, turbulence intensity, temperature, and species concentration are being determined using non-interference optical diagnostic techniques (laser doppler velocimeter (LDV)) and intrusive probes. The experimental data are being compared with analytical models developed by Science Application, Inc. (SAI) under an Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) contract. An axisymmetric, 5-inch diameter laboratory ramjet combustor was built and checked out. Experiments were initiated using (1) an LDV and a hot-wire anemometer for velocity and turbulence intensity measurements, (2) coated thermocouples for temperature measurement, and (3) a gas chromatograph for analysis of gas samples.
