Journal ArticleDOI
Large eddy simulation and experimental study of flashback and blow-off in a lean partially premixed swirled burner
TL;DR: In this article, a mixing tube is added between the injector and the combustion chamber to promote mixing and combustion eff ectivity in lean premixed prevaporized (LPP) combustion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilization of a Turbulent Premixed Flame Using a Nanosecond Repetitively Pulsed Plasma
TL;DR: In this article, a nanosecond repetitively pulsed plasma (NRPP) produced by electric pulses of 10 kV during 10 ns at a frequency of up to 30 kHz has been used to stabilize and improve the efficiency of a 25-kW lean turbulent premixed propane/air flame at atmospheric pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic measurements of OH chemiluminescence for fuel-lean, high-pressure, premixed, laminar flames
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the signal from the first electronically excited state of a premixed laminar flame to ground (at 305.4nm) to determine the viability of using OH chemiluminescence as an active control parameter for high-pressure, premixed flames.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study on the effect of pressure and strain rate on CH chemiluminescence of premixed fuel-lean methane/air flames
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the possibility of using chemiluminescence as an active feedback control parameter to deduce the equivalence ratio, and therefore NO x production and combustion stability, for premixed flames at high pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mixing and stabilization study of a partially premixed swirling flame using laser induced fluorescence
TL;DR: In this article, a laboratory-scale swirling burner, presenting many similarities with gas turbines combustors, has been studied experimentally using planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) on OH radical and acetone vapor in order to characterize the flame stabilization process.
