Combustion chamber wall heat transfer is a major contributor to efficiency losses in diesel engines. In this context, thermal swing materials (adapting to the surrounding gas temperature) have been pinpointed as a promising mitigative solution. In this study, experiments are carried out in a high-pressure/high-temperature vessel to (a) characterise the wall heat transfer process ensuing from wall impingement of a combusting fuel spray, and (b) evaluate insulative improvements provided by a coating that promotes thermal swing. The baseline experimental condition resembles that of Spray A from the Engine Combustion Network, while additional variations are generated by modifying the ambient temperature as well as the injection pressure and duration. Wall heat transfer and wall temperature measurements are time-resolved and accompanied by concurrent high-speed imaging of natural luminosity. An investigation with an uncoated wall is carried out with several sensor locations around the stagnation point, elucidating sensor-to-sensor variability and setup symmetry. Surface heat flux follows three phases: (i) an initial peak, (ii) a slightly lower plateau dependent on the injection duration, and (iii) a slow decline. In addition to the uncoated reference case, the investigation involves a coating made of porous zirconia, an established thermal swing material. With a coated setup, the projection of surface quantities (heat flux and temperature) from the immersed measurement location requires additional numerical analysis of conjugate heat transfer. Starting from the traces measured beneath the coating, the surface quantities are obtained by solving a one-dimensional inverse heat transfer problem. The present measurements are complemented by CFD simulations supplemented with recent rough-wall models. The surface roughness of the coated specimen is indicated to have a significant impact on the wall heat flux, offsetting the expected benefit from the thermal swing material.

The Impact

Textile motion in a front-loading washer has been characterized via video capturing, and a processing system developed based on image geometric moment. Textile motion significantly contributes to the mass transfer of the wash solution in porous materials, particularly in the radial direction (perpendicular to the rotational axis of the inner drum). In this paper, the velocity profiles and residence time distributions of tracer textiles have been investigated to characterize the textile dynamics in a front-loading washer. The results show that the textile motion varies significantly with the water volume and rotational speed, and that the motion path follows certain patterns. Two regions are observed in the velocity plots: a passive region where the textile moves up with low velocity and an active region where the textile falls down with relatively high speed. A stagnant area in the residence time profile is observed. This corresponds to the passive region in the velocity profile. The stagnant area affects the mechanical action, thus influencing washing efficiency and textile performance. The findings on textile dynamics will help in the development of better front-loading washers.

Laminar Burning Speed

This experimental research examined the effect of CO2 as a diluent on the laminar burning speed of propane–air mixtures. Combustion took place at various CO2 concentrations (0–80%), different equivalence ratios (0.7<ϕ<1.2) and over a range of temperatures (298–420 K) and pressures (0.5–6.2 atm). The experiments were performed in a cylindrical constant volume chamber with a Z-shaped Schlieren system, coupled with a high-speed CMOS camera to capture the propagation of the flames at speeds up to 4000 frames per second. The flame stability of these mixtures at different pressures, equivalence ratios, and CO2 concentrations was also studied. Only laminar, spherical, and smooth flames were considered in measuring laminar burning speed. Pressure rise data as a function of time during the flame propagation were the primary input of the multishell thermodynamic model for measuring the laminar burning speed of propane-CO2-air mixtures. The laminar burning speed of such blends was observed to decrease with the addition of CO2 and to increase with the gas temperature. It was also noted that the laminar burning speed decreases with increasing pressure. The collected experimental data were compared with simulation data obtained via a steady one-dimensional (1D) laminar premixed flame code from Cantera, using a detailed H2/CO/C1–C4 kinetics model encompassing 111 species and 784 reactions.

AbstractThe raceway plays an important role in the mass and heat transportation inside a melter gasifier. Considering that pure oxygen at room temperature instead of hot air is injected into the melter gasifier, a two-dimensional mathematical model at steady state is developed in the current work to describe the effect of the additional gas injection on the characteristics around the raceway in melter gasifier. The results show that a high-speed jet with a highest temperature above 3500 K could be found in front of tuyere. Furthermore, a small scale of gas flow circulation occurs in front of tuyere that results in a more serious thermal damage to tuyere. In order to decrease the gas temperature in the raceway to prevent the blowing-down caused by tuyere damage, the additional gas, including N2, natural gas (NG) and coke oven gas (COG) should be injected through the tuyere. Compared with N2, additional fuel gas injection gives full play to the high temperature reduction advantage of hydrogen. In addition, considering the insufficient hearth heat after injecting NG and the effective utilization of secondary resource, an appropriate amount of COG is recommended to be injected for optimizing blast system.

The Difference

The thermal characteristics of the positive leader discharges occurring under the different electrode terminals in a 1 m rod-plate air gap were studied quantitatively using Mach–Zehnder interferometry and a high-speed video camera. When disturbed by the discharge channel, the interference fringes are distorted because of the change in the refractive index of air, which is related to the gas density. Therefore, the gas temperature and gas density distribution in the leader channel can be retrieved from the offset of the interference fringes. Based on these results, the thermal characteristics of the leader channel were studied under different electrode terminals with a radius of curvature of 2.5 mm and 5 mm for cone electrodes and a diameter of 40 mm for a spherical electrode. The results show that the gas temperature in the leader channel increased while the gas density decreased as the radius of curvature of the electrode terminal decreased. Additionally, a smaller radius of curvature leads to a larger thermal diameter, but the difference in the thermal diameter is not obvious; for the terminals used in this paper, the difference is within 2 mm.
