Large eddy simulation on effect of spark phases on ignition reliability
-
摘要:
针对单头部模型燃烧室,利用大涡模拟方法计算不同时刻点火时火焰的动态传播过程,在一个流场脉动周期内研究火花相位变化对燃烧室点火成功率的影响。模拟结果表明:对于不断脉动的燃烧室流场,即使在可以点燃的工况范围之内,也不能确保单个火花脉冲在任意时刻都能实现成功点火。对比分析燃烧室流场频率与单个火花脉冲特性发现,单个火花脉冲的持续时间远小于流场脉动周期是导致火花相位严重影响点火成功率的根本原因。当采用大涡模拟方法研究点火问题时,为了消除火花相位对点火成功率的影响,建议采用连续多个火花脉冲点火方式代替单个火花脉冲点火方式,火花脉冲持续时间应该至少覆盖一个完整的流场脉动周期。
Abstract:For the model combustor with a single dome, large eddy simulation was carried out to simulate the dynamic propagation process of flames at different ignition timing. In a pulsation cycle of the flow field, the effect of spark phases on ignition reliability was studied. The simulation results revealed that for the pulsating flow field in the model combustor, even within the range of ignition limits, the single spark pulse can not cause successful ignition at any spark phase. By comparing the frequency of the flow field with the characteristics of the single spark pulse, it was found that the duration of the single spark pulse was much shorter than the pulsation period of the flow field. This is the fundamental reason why spark phases seriously affect the ignition reliability. In order to eliminate the effect of spark phases on ignition reliability, it is suggested that a single spark pulse should be replaced by a series of spark pulses when using large eddy simulation to study ignition problems. And the duration of spark pulses should cover at least one complete pulsation cycle of the flow field.
