Journal ArticleDOI

Flame propagation across an obstacle: OH-PLIF and 2-D simulations with detailed chemistry

TL;DR: In this paper, a planar laser-induced fluorescence of the OH radical (OH-PLIF) was used to study the flame topology and the flame tip velocity along the channel streamwise axis, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hot surface ignition of stoichiometric hydrogen-air mixtures

TL;DR: In this article, two-dimensional simulations with detailed chemistry, and study of the reaction pathways of the buoyancy-driven flow and ignition of a stoichiometric hydrogen-air mixture by a rapidly heated surface (glowplug) are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental and numerical study on moving hot particle ignition

TL;DR: In this paper, the ignition threshold for n-hexane-air was determined using a moving hot sphere of 6 mm in diameter and shearing interferometry flow field visualization was used to observe the onset of an ignition kernel and subsequent flame formation and propagation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of the chemical modeling on the quenching limits of gaseous detonation waves confined by an inert layer

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of chemistry modeling on the flow structure and quenching limits of detonations propagating into reactive layers bounded by an inert gas is investigated numerically, and three different kinetic schemes of increasing complexity are used to model a stoichiometric H2-O2 mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of ignition of stoichiometric hydrogen-air mixtures by moving heated particles

TL;DR: In this article, two-dimensional simulations with detailed chemistry are used to study the reaction pathways of the transient flow and ignition of a stoichiometric hydrogen/air mixture by moving hot spheres.
