  3. Pressure Effects on Structure and Temperature H. Gohari Darabkhani Field of Laminar Diffusion Flame Y. Zhang Introduction • A considerable amount of literature has been published on Laminar Diffusion Flame (LDF) at atmospheric pressure. • Most practical combustion devices operate at elevated pressures to increase thermodynamic efficiency and decrease size. • Current understanding of the influence of pressure on thermo- physical properties of sooty flames is still weak. •Accurate and reliable measurements of soot temperature and concentration in the diffusion flames by nonintrusive means are highly desirable to achieve in-depth understanding of combustion and pollutant formation processes. •The present study focuses on the influence of elevated pressures up to 10 bar, on soot temperature distribution of ethylene-air laminar co-flow diffusion flame. �� �� �������������������������������������������������������������� 3/20

Zhang Diffusion Flames Flame in which the oxidizer combines with the Fuel by diffusion Typical examples of Diffusion flames; Blast Furnace 1. Candle ; A classic example of a diffusion flame 2. Furnace ; operate under nonpremixed conditions for safety reasons. 3. Diesel Engines ; a liquid fuel spray is injected into the combustion chamber. 4. Gas Turbines ; nonpremixed combustion occurs in the swirl-stabilized combustion zone. 5. Fire ; If the fuel is a solid or liquid, it will first be gasified by radiative heat flux from the fire before mixing with the surrounding air. �� �� �������������������������������������������������������������� 4/20

Zhang Two-Color Pyrometry Method • The two-color technique relies on the measurement of the emission intensity from incandescent soot particles in the flame based on the Planck radiation law. • This method measures temperature based on the signal ratios at two different wavelengths.   6     λ 1 1 I S       λ λ 2 1 2 = ⋅ − + + ln ln ln T C     2    λ λ   λ  I S   λ λ 1 2 1 2 1 λ ; The wavelength of the radiation (µm), T; absolute temperature (K) C 1 and C 2 ; The first and second Planck constants I λ ; Monochromatic radiation intensity S λ 1 / S λ 2 ; Instrument factor (from calibration) �� �� �������������������������������������������������������������� 5/20

  6. Pressure Effects on Structure and Temperature H. Gohari Darabkhani Field of Laminar Diffusion Flame Y. Zhang Choice of the Filters The filter wavelengths should be in a region: � To avoid the radiation from gas molecules (e.g.; CO 2 and H 2 O) and intermediate free radicals (e.g.; OH*, CH*, C 2 * and CN*). � Where the camera sensors are expected to have a reasonable sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio � To prevent the camera from image saturation � Compromising the factors addressed above rise to choose the two wavelengths in NIR at following wavelengths; I 1 =780 nm & I 2 =1064 nm with a central wavelength tolerance of ± 2 nm. �� �� �������������������������������������������������������������� 6/20

Zhang Ethylene(0.15 slpm)-air (15 slpm) at different pressures � At atmospheric pressure, the base of the flame had a bulbous appearance. � As the pressure is increased; • Axial flame diameters decreased at all heights. • The flame height shows an initial stretches by pressure then decreased by more pressure. • From 2 bar and above non-completely oxidized soot particles escapes from the flame tip leading to a sooting flame (Due to dramatic increase in soot formation and the flame temperature drop by pressure). �� �� �������������������������������������������������������������� 11/20
