A study on effects of CO/H2 ratio, H2O dilution and pressures on the cellular structure of moist syngas flame was conducted using spherically expanding flames. Experimental conditions for the CO/H2/H2O/air mixtures are the pressures from 0.1 to 0.3 MPa, initial temperature of 373K and H2O dilution ratios are from 0 to 0.15. Results show cellular instability is promoted at atmospheric pressure and suppressed at elevated pressure when H2O is added into the mixture. In addition, critical radius increases with the increase of H2O dilution ratio for the mixture with CO/H2 ratio of 50/50 and changes little when CO/H2 ratio is 20/80. Critical Peclet number decreases with the addition of H2O and increases with the decrease of CO/H2 ratio.

The linear stability of liquid film flowing upward the inner surface of vertical cylinder under the action of the swirling gas core flow is investigated taking exactly the centrifugal force and curvature of the cylinder into account. Swirl has been considered by superposing a circular movement on the annular flow. The theoretical model of the stability of interface to small perturbation is established by analyzing the normal force balance condition at the wavy interface. The characteristic equation is solved and the stability criterion is obtained. The stability characteristics of neutral, growing and damped modes are presented showing the influences of swirl intensity, relative motion of gas-liquid flow, and the surface tension force. The modeling results indicate that the swirling of the gas phase stabilizes the film flow while the curvature of the cylinder destabilizes it. For strong swirling annular flow, it is found that there is a small influence of surface tension on the stability of interface because the stabilizing centrifugal force is dominant on this condition. The neutral wavelength is found to be very sensitive to the values of swirl intensity and cylinder radius when gas-liquid relative movement is small. However, when gas flow rate is large enough, there is no significant difference in its value.

Heat pipe technology is widely applied in the heat transfer systems of many equipment. Two-phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) is one of the heat pipes which could work with the help of natural gravity. TPCT is adopted in many occasions, such as the waste heat recovery system, the ground source heat pumps, the preservation of permafrost and the de-icing of roadways. In this paper, a comprehensive numerical model is established to describe the condensation and evaporation of thermosyphon. The volume of fluid (VOF) model is employed to describe the interface between vapor and liquid phases. The predicted temperature distribution on the thermosyphon wall agreed well with the published experimental data in the trend.

Ignition delay times of the 1-pentene/O2/Ar mixtures and n-pentane/O2/Ar mixtures were measured behind the reflected shock wave at 10 atm, stoichiometric equivalence ratio, in the temperature range of 1100 K to 1580 K. Empirical correlations of the ignition delay time for 1-pentene and n-pentane were obtained through regression analysis. The simulations with the updated natural gas model show well agreement with the experimental data. Both the experimental and simulation results show a crossover in the ignition delay time of these two mixtures. Reaction pathways and sensitivity analysis are conducted to understand the oxidation process of 1-pentene and n-pentane. The chain branching reaction R1(H+O2O+OH) shows a strong promoting effect while the resonantly stablized allyl radical may be responsible for the longer ignition delay time of 1-pentene in the high temperature region.

Ignition delay times of propanal were measured in a shock tube over the temperature range of 1050-1800 K, pressures of 1.2-16 atm, fuel concentrations of 0.5-2.0%, and equivalence ratios of 0.5-2.0. Through multiple linear regression, a correlation for the tested ignition delay times was obtained, and the measured data were also compared to the previous data. Two available models (Veloo mech and NUIG mech), were used to simulate the experimental data. Results suggest that both mechanisms has its own advantages and the Veloo mech exhibits a better prediction on the measured data than NUIG mech except for the fuel-rich condition. Reaction pathway analysis indicates that propanal molecule mainly breaks down through the H-abstraction reactions (accounting for around 80% propanal consumption), while reactions of unimolecular decomposition contribute a little part of the whole consumption.

Flame front structure of turbulent premixed CH4/air and C3H8/air flames was obtained using OH-PLIF technique, laminar flame properties were calculated and the effect of turbulence intensity on turbulent flame structure and flame speed was analyzed. The results showed that the flame front wrinkled was promoted as the turbulence intensity increases. The correlation between flame speed and turbulence intensity was obtained.

As one of the most promising clean alternative fuels, natural gas has been widely used in automobile engines. However, due to the slow burning velocity of natural gas and its poor lean-burn ability, hydrogen is often added to improve its combustion behavior. Researches on the fundamental laminar premixed flame characteristics of CH4/H2 blends are of great significance to understand the combustion process in practical combustors. The intrinsic instability of laminar flame is one of the classic issues in flame dynamics, which presents the dynamic response of laminar premixed flamelets to weak perturbations. By studying dynamic mechanism of intrinsic instability, we can estimate the burning velocity more accurately and gain a deeper insight into the turbulent combustion process in spark ignition engines. In this study, the cellular instabilities of laminar premixed CH4/H2/air flat flames were studied using McKenna burner with OH-PLIF technique. It was found that the addition of H2 can broaden the lean combustion limit on flat flame burner with which the cellular instabilities were brought. The digital and OH-PLIF images were obtained to calculate the quantitative parameters of cellular length scale, which is associated with the properties of fuel mixtures such as Lewis number, Markstein number et al. Through the theoretic analysis, we make a thorough investigation on the mechanism about how the cellular scales were determined.
