The Relationship

A three-dimensional numerical study of a single droplet splashing vertically on a liquid film is presented. The numerical method is based on the finite volume method (FVM) of Navier–Stokes equations coupled with the volume of fluid (VOF) method, and the adaptive local mesh refinement technology is adopted. It enables the liquid–gas interface to be tracked more accurately, and to be less computationally expensive. The relationship between the diameter of the free rim, the height of the crown with different numbers of collision Weber, and the thickness of the liquid film is explored. The results indicate that the crown height increases as the Weber number increases, and the diameter of the crown rim is inversely proportional to the collision Weber number. It can also be concluded that the dimensionless height of the crown decreases with the increase in the thickness of the dimensionless liquid film, which has little effect on the diameter of the crown rim during its growth.

Abstract The hydrogen addition is a potential way to reduce the soot emission of aviation kerosene. The current study analyzed the effect of hydrogen addition on aviation kerosene (Jet A1) soot formation in a laminar flame at elevated pressure to obtain a fundamental understanding of the reduced soot formation by hydrogen addition. The soot formation of flame was simulated by CoFlame code. The soot formation of kerosene-nitrogen-air, (kerosene + replaced hydrogen addition)-nitrogen-air, (kerosene + direct hydrogen addition)-nitrogen-air and (kerosene + direct nitrogen addition)-nitrogen-air laminar flames were simulated. The calculated pressure includes 1, 2 and 5 atm. The hydrogen addition increases the peak temperature of Jet A1 flame and extends the height of flame. The hydrogen addition suppresses the soot precursor formation of Jet A1 by physical dilution effect and chemical inhibition effect, which weaken the poly-aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) condensation process and reduce the soot formation. The elevated pressure significantly accelerates the soot precursor formation and increases the soot formation in flame. Meanwhile, the ratio of reduced soot volume fraction to base soot volume fraction by hydrogen addition decreases with the increase of pressure, indicating that the elevated pressure weakens the suppression effect of hydrogen addition on soot formation in Jet A1 flame.

Abstract In this research, n-dodecane and JW are selected as single and multi-component surrogate fuel of aviation kerosene to study the Jet-A spray combustion characteristics. The spray combustion phenomena are simulated using large eddy simulation coupled with detailed chemical reaction mechanism. Proper orthogonal decomposition method is applied to analyze the flow field characteristics, and the instantaneous velocity field are decomposed into four parts, namely the mean field, coherent field, transition field and turbulent field, respectively. The four subfields have their own characteristics. In terms of different fuels, JW has a higher intensity of coherent structures and local vortices than n-dodecane, which promotes the fuel-air mixing and improves the combustion characteristics, and the soot formation is significantly reduced. In addition, with the increase of initial temperature, the combustion is more intense, the ignition delay time is advanced, the flame lift-off length is reduced, and soot formation is increased accordingly.

Film Evaporation

A numerical study of mixed convection heat and mass transfer along a vertical channel with a wavy wall is performed. The wavy wall is heated by a constant flux, while the other is adiabatic. The discretisation of equations in both liquid and gas phases is realised using an implicit finite difference scheme. Results of simulation compare the effect of multiple parameters, especially amplitude and characteristic length of the curve, on the liquid film evaporation process. The results indicate that heat and mass transfer is enhanced by increasing the amplitude and number of wall waves. Moreover, a very small value of waves amplitude of the wall may reduce the sensible heat and mass transfer.
