Effect of low Co-flow air velocity on hydrogen-air non-premixed turbulent flame model

الملخص EN

The aim of this paper is to provide information concerning the effect of low co-flow velocity on the turbulent diffusion flame for a simple type of combustor, a numerical simulated cases of turbulent diffusion hydrogen-air flame are performed.

The combustion model used in this investigation is based on chemical equilibrium and kinetics to simplify the complexity of the chemical mechanism.

Effects of increased co-flowing air velocity on temperature, velocity components (axial and radial), and reactants have been investigated numerically and examined.

Numerical results for temperature are compared with the experimental data.

The comparison offers a good agreement.

All numerical simulations have been performed using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) commercial code FLUENT.

A comparison among the various co-flow air velocities, and their effects on flame behavior and temperature fields are presented
