Dynamic Combustion Studies Using Advanced Optical Diagnostics. Volume 2. Tabulated Data

Abstract

Computer models of turbulent mixing and combustion suffer from many limitations, deficiencies, and errors. To evaluate and refine them, an experimental research program was started (a) to develop a combustion test facility and optical diagnostics, (b) to perform turbulent mixing and combustion experiments, and (c) to provide a data base for modeling needs. In Volume II, bench-mark quality data recorded in these experiments are documented for modeling needs. Specifically, data are tabulated for three variable-density, non-reactive turbulent mixing experiments: (1) 2-D Mixing Layer, (2) 2-D Slot Jet/Centerbody, and (3) Round Jet, and for two turbulent combustion experiments: (1) Scalar Fluctuations in Premixed Flames, (2) Conical Flame Stabilizer. These data may be used to evaluate and refine modeling codes of turbulent mixing and combustion processes.
