Flame-Turbulence Interactions

Abstract

The interaction between individual vortices and a premixed laminar flame was investigated in order to characterize the underlying dynamics of flame-turbulence interactions and thereby gain an improved understanding of premixed turbulent flames. In addition, previous two-dimensional flame structure measurements made in turbulent premixed flames were re-analyzed in order to obtain flame curvature and orientation statistics....
