Studies on High Pressure and Unsteady Flame Phenomena. Revision.
Abstract
The objective of the present program is to study the structure and response of steady and unsteady laminar premixed and nonpremixed flames in reduced and elevated pressure environments through (a) non-intrusive experimentation, (b) computational simulation using detailed flame and kinetic codes, and (c) asymptotic analysis with reduced kinetic mechanisms. During the reporting period progress has been made in the following projects: (1) a theoretical and experimental study of unsteady diffusion flames; (2) a computational and experimental study of methane/air flames at elevated pressures; (3) an asymptotic analysis of the structure of methane/air premixed flames with reduced chemistry; (4) an asymptotic analysis of the extinction of laminar premixed flames with volumetric heat loss and chain mechanisms; and (5) asymptotic analyses of ignition in the supersonic laminar flat-plate boundary layer and mixing layer. A total of five reprints are appended. Flames, High-pressure combustion, Unsteady combustion, Reduced mechanisms, Methane-air flames, Extinction, Supersonic combustion.
