Температура пламени и степень черноты определяют его собственное излучение. Однако оценка указанных параметров на стадии проектирования судовых дизелей представляет собой трудную и еще пока нерешенную проблему. Последнее обусловливается сложностью достоверного математического моделирования процесса сгорания топлива в дизельных двигателях и весьма высокой стоимостью экспериментальных исследований в этой области. Целью данной статьи является разработка расчетно-экспериментального метода определения параметров излучения пламени в камере сгорания судового дизеля 6 ЧН 24/36. Показано, что оценка величины температуры пламени в камере сгорания в функции угла поворота коленчатого вала может быть выполнена по температуре газов, найденной из экспериментальной или расчетной индикаторной диаграммы и специального параметра. Последний определяется на основании зависимости, полученной путем обобщения экспериментальных данных по измерениям температуры пламени на ряде дизельных двигателей. Представлены результаты по температуре пламени для судового дизеля 6 ЧН 24/36, полученные с использованием разработанного расчетно-экспериментального метода. Установлено, что с ростом нагрузки температура пламени возрастает. При этом в диапазоне изменения нагрузки дизеля от 50% до 100% от номинальной мощности увеличение температуры пламени примерно в два раза превышает увеличение температуры газов. Использование полученных результатов для оценки собственных потоков излучения пламени в камере сгорания судового дизеля 6 ЧН 24/36 и сопоставление их с известными экспериментальными данными показало сходимость в пределах 10 – 15%. The flame temperature and radiating power are determined with its own radiation. However, the assessment of these parameters at the design stage of marine diesel engines is a complicated and still unsolved problem. The latter is due to the complexity of reliable mathematical modeling of the fuel combustion process in diesel engines and the very high cost of experimental research in this area. The purpose of this article is to develop a computational and experimental method for determining the parameters of flame radiation in the combustion chamber of marine diesel engine 6 ChN 24/36. It is shown that the estimation of the value of flame temperature in the combustion chamber as a function of the crankshaft rotation angle can be performed using the gas temperature found from the experimental or calculated indicator diagram and a special parameter. The latter is determined on the basis of the dependence obtained by generalizing experimental data of the flame temperature measurements at a number of diesel engines. The results on the flame temperature for marine diesel engine 6 ChN 24/36, obtained using the developed computational and experimental method, are presented. It has been found that the flame temperature increases with increasing load. At the same time, in the range of diesel load variation from 50% to 100% of the nominal power, an increase in the flame temperature is approximately twice more than an increase in the gas temperature. The use of the results obtained to assess the intrinsic fluxes of flame radiation in the combustion chamber of marine diesel engine 6 ChN 24/36 and their comparison with the known experimental data showed the convergence within 10 - 15%.

One main characteristic of the gas turbine unit (GTU) burner is its fuel combustion completeness, which affects directly the efficiency of the power plant along with CO and unburnt hydrocarbons CnHm emissions. The aim of this work was the research on the application of the fuel heating-up as an alternative method for increasing the fuel combustion completeness and controlling the emission of harmful agents. This goal is achieved by obtaining experimental data on the emissions of CO and NOx at different temperatures of the fuel gas supply to the combustion chamber. The most significant result of the work is the experimentally confirmed possibility of increasing the combustion efficiency (decreasing CO) by heating the fuel gas while maintaining constant gas-dynamic characteristics of the chamber. The significance of the results obtained consists in the experimental confirmation of the combustion quality control only by heating the fuel gas without changing the operating and design characteristics of the combustion chamber. The fuel combustion low completeness can cause the burner unstable operation in the form of the unsteady pre-blowout burning combined with the pressure oscillations in the burner. At present, methods for ensuring the increase in stability and completeness of the fuel combustion are related to the air rate and temperature changes at the inlet. However, the use of these methods can be unwanted because of their causing the decrease in the coefficient of efficiency and in the resource of the ‘hot part’ of the gas-turbine facility.

Improving the mixture formation and combustion of various types of fuels in the combustion chamber is one the ways for the development of modern engines. Requirements for reliability, durability, tactical and technical characteristics and, importantly, for environmental friendliness pose new problems in this area of science and technology. This is largely determined by the degree of perfection individual processes in the engine operating cycle. An increase in power in accordance with the requirements for an increase in energy saturation and productivity of transport vehicles is limited by the resource and reliability of the engine due to an increase in thermal and mechanical loading of the main parts. The expansion the scope of application is limited by increased emissions harmful substances with exhaust gases, levels noise and vibration a running engine. Consumption increasing amounts liquid fuels requires further improvements in fuel efficiency. The main process of the working cycle a piston engine is the process fuel combustion. Fuel efficiency, power, service life and environmental performance depend on its quality. Therefore, the greatest attention is paid to the improvement of this process. The development of modern engines consists in the study and improvement of the working process on liquid and gaseous fuel components. Based on the foregoing and in accordance with the urgency of this problem, the method of electromagnetic action on fuel was studied. The results of experimental studies have shown the effectiveness the use of electro physical effects on hydrocarbon fuel to improve the parameters and characteristics of heat engines. It has been established that the electro physical effect on hydrocarbon fuel increases the completeness of fuel combustion by 4 ... 6% and reduces the deposition of carbon deposits in the combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine by 20 ... 25%. Improvement the fuel combustion processes in the previous phases leads to a reduction in the afterburning phase, which entails a decrease in the exhaust gas temperature, a decrease in the concentration of carbon monoxide by 0.64 ... 0.7%, the concentration of hydrocarbons by 25 ... 35% and the concentration of nitrogen oxide by 12 ... 16%.

In the world economy more and more attention is paid to the environment protection. This has brought a requirement for reduction of harmful substances emission from the gas turbine engine combustors to the foreground scene. Several concepts of low-emission combustion of liquid fuels have been suggested to solve the problem of nitric oxide emission reduction. The authors consider combustion of lean homogenized (quick-mixed) fuel-air mixtures to be the most promising concept for a multi-mode combustion chamber. Based on the accumulated experience, the authors have formed some notion with respect to design peculiarities of low-emission combustors. Based on such general notions, an attempt has been made to create a model combustion chamber for decreasing harmful substances emission. A design for compact mixing modules has been worked out, as well as for a perforated flame tube. 3D computations have been carried out for the flow in the combustor compartment with 3 mini-modules, so to compare design and experimental data. In calculations the air entered the flame tube through a channel with a rectangular cross-section and, further, through swirlers of three burners (60% of air flow). Besides, the air came into the gap between the flame tube and casing through two side channels and, further, it got inside the flame tube through cooling system holes (40% of air flow). In parallel, tests have been carried out in similar combustor compartment, using standard fuels, measuring harmful substances emission at gas temperature (T4) up to 1700 K. Data obtained testifies to essential reduction of nitric oxides in the experimental combustor being considered. Emission index NOx does not exceed value of 1 g/kg f in all the conditions investigated. Fuel efficiency is ≥ 99% for all the measurement regimes, except one, where it is 98%. Additionally, tests have been conducted, using bio fuel obtained from plant raw material. Research results have revealed problems of changeover to such type of fuel mixtures. Comparing test data with 3D simulation results, it can be noted that there, where computed value of the fuel combustion efficiency coincides with the measured one, NOx value also coincides. However, the emission index value is higher there, where the fuel combustion efficiency value obtained in computation is higher, i.e. where there are zones with higher temperature. The experimental results obtained have confirmed possibility of organizing low-emission combustion, as well as possibility of achieving the nitric oxide emission index level equal to 1 g/kg f at the combustor inlet temperature of 682K. It is evident that more detailed design study is required for transfer of the experimental technology to the working compartment of the combustion chamber. The achieved level of harmful substances emission, after improvement and implementation of technology, may allow meeting the strictest ICAO requirements and reducing the airport fees significantly.

Background: A biomass pellet rotary burner was chosen as the research object in order to study the influence of excess air coefficient on the combustion efficiency. The finite element simulation model of biomass rotary burner was established. Methods: The computational fluid dynamics software was applied to simulate the combustion characteristics of biomass rotary burner in steady condition and the effects of excess air ratio on pressure field, velocity field and temperature field was analyzed. Results: The results show that the flow velocity inside the burner gradually increases with the increase of inlet velocity and the maximum combustion temperature is also appeared in the middle part of the combustion chamber. Conclusion: When the excess air coefficient is 1.0 with the secondary air outlet velocity of 4.16 m/s, the maximum temperature of the rotary combustion chamber is 2730K with the secondary air outlet velocity of 6.66 m/s. When the excess air ratio is 1.6, the maximum temperature of the rotary combustion chamber is 2410K. When the air ratio is 2.4, the maximum temperature of the rotary combustion chamber is 2340K with the secondary air outlet velocity of 9.99 m/s. The best excess air coefficient is 1.0. The experimental value of combustion temperature of biomass rotary burner is in good agreement with the simulation results.

The development of internal combustion engines involves various new solutions, one of which is the use of dual-fuel systems. The diversity of technological solutions being developed determines the efficiency of such systems, as well as the possibility of reducing the emission of carbon dioxide and exhaust components into the atmosphere. An innovative double direct injection system was used as a method for forming a mixture in the combustion chamber. The tests were carried out with the use of gasoline, ethanol, n-heptane, and n-butanol during combustion in a model test engine—the rapid compression machine (RCM). The analyzed combustion process indicators included the cylinder pressure, pressure increase rate, heat release rate, and heat release value. Optical tests of the combustion process made it possible to analyze the flame development in the observed area of the combustion chamber. The conducted research and analyses resulted in the observation that it is possible to control the excess air ratio in the direct vicinity of the spark plug just before ignition. Such possibilities occur as a result of the properties of the injected fuels, which include different amounts of air required for their stoichiometric combustion. The studies of the combustion process have shown that the combustible mixtures consisting of gasoline with another fuel are characterized by greater combustion efficiency than the mixtures composed of only a single fuel type, and that the influence of the type of fuel used is significant for the combustion process and its indicator values.

Abstract In this study, a novel swirl combustion modified device for steel slag was designed and enhanced with the objective of achieving highly efficient and clean coal combustion and also for achieving the whole elements utilization of coal. Coal ash and steel slag were melted in the combustion chamber and subsequently entered the slag chamber. The detrimental substances solidified and formed crystals, which allowed for the comprehensive utilization of the ash and slag. Our experiments mainly aimed to mitigate the formation of NOx, while using the heat and slag simultaneously during the coal combustion without a combustion efficiency penalty. The increase in the device’s energy efficiency and reduction in the NOx emissions are important requirements for industrialization. The experiments were carried out in an optimized swirling combustion device, which had a different structure and various coal feeding conditions in comparison to previously reported devices. The fuel-staged and non-staged combustion experiments were compared under different coal ratios (bitumite:anthracite). For the fuel-staged combustion experiments, the NOx concentration in the flue gas was observed to decrease significantly when the coal ratio of 1:1, an excess air coefficient of 1.2, and a fuel-staged ratio of 15:85 were used. Under these conditions, the flue gas temperature was as high as 1,620°C, while the NOx concentration was as low as 320 mg/m3 at 6 % O2. The air-surrounding-fuel structure that formed in the furnace was very beneficial in reducing the formation of NOx. In comparison to other types of coal burners, the experimental combustion device designed in this study achieved a significant reduction of NOx emissions (approximately 80 %).
