Measurements of the structure of turbulent premixed and stratified methane/air flames
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2011-11-08)
The influence of stratification on the structure of turbulent methane/air combustion is investigated using experimental data from laboratory scale burners: a weakly turbulent slot burner, and a higher turbulence co-annular ...
Forcing of globally unstable jets and flames
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringEmmanuel CollegeGates Scholar, 2012-04-10)
In the analysis of thermoacoustic systems, a flame is usually characterised
by the way its heat release responds to acoustic forcing. This
response depends on the hydrodynamic stability of the flame. Some
flames, such ...
Simulations of turbulent swirl combustors
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringSelwyn College, 2012-07-03)
This thesis aims at improving our knowledge on swirl combustors. The work presented here is based on Large Eddy Simulations (LES) coupled to an advanced combustion model: the Conditional Moment Closure (CMC). Numerical
