Simultaneous OH/Fuel PLIF measurement for centrally-staged swirling spray flames at elevated pressures and temperatures
-
摘要:
为研究近真实工况下先进航空发动机中心分级燃烧室内部流动反应组分场特性,在进口压力为0.5 MPa、进口温度为600 K的条件下对中心分级旋流液雾火焰开展同步的OH与Fuel(煤油PAH荧光)平面激光诱导荧光(planar laser-induced fluorescence, PLIF)测量。为应对加温加压液雾火焰测试的困难与挑战,本文在试验流程、光路设计、图像采集与处理等多个环节进行了优化。OH/Fuel PLIF同步测量结果表明:中心分级旋流液雾火焰存在4种典型的火焰结构;在进口温度、压力及总燃油供给量保持不变的条件下,随着燃油分级比的降低,主预燃级火焰耦合减弱,出现多种火焰结构的变化,其中预燃级对火焰稳定起到关键作用。
Abstract:The species distribution of reacting flow was investigated in the staged swirl spray flames at near-realistic conditions for advanced aero-engine applications. Simultaneous planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) measurements of OH radicals and fuel (kerosene) were conducted in a centrally staged combustor at an inlet pressure of 0.5 MPa and an inlet temperature of 600 K. To address the difficulties and challenges in PLIF measurements of complex spray flames at engine-relevant conditions, a series of optimization measures were taken in the experimental procedure, optical layout, image acquisition, and post-processing. The simultaneous OH/Fuel PLIF results reveal four typical flame structures in the combustor. Under constant inlet temperature, pressure, and total fuel supply, a reduction in the fuel staging ratio weakens the coupling between the pilot and main flames, leading to diverse variations in flame structures, where the pilot stage is proven to play a critical role in flame stabilization.
