Combustion organization and NOx emission in a single sector model combustor

摘要:
采用光学诊断与三维数值模拟结合的方式,研究了中心分级贫油预混预蒸发模型燃烧室燃烧组织与NOx生成特征。试验测量了模型燃烧室流速、燃油、OH和NO组分浓度分布。通过与试验结果对比,采用基于雷诺平均Navier-Stokes方程的方法对流场的预测误差为13.9%,喷雾张角预测误差为6.0%,预测的OH和NO组分分布特征与试验测量结果基本一致。数值结果表明,在单头部模型燃烧室中,主、预燃级火焰以弱耦合的方式组织燃烧,且大部分NO在预燃级高温区域生成。燃油分级比的变化(0.15~0.30)不影响燃烧室流动与火焰分布特征,但对燃烧室出口NOx生成量有一定影响,NOx生成量随着分级比增大而减少。

Abstract:Combustion organization and NOx formation characteristics in a single sector model lean premixed pre-vaporized combustor were investigated by optical experiments and 3-dimensional numerical simulations. The flow field, spray field, OH and NO species field in the combustor were simulated by the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes method and then compared with the experimental results. It was found that the prediction errors of the flow field and spray angle were 13.9% and 6.0%, respectively. The predicted OH and NO distribution characteristics were in good agreement with the experimental results. The results showed that the main and pilot flames organized combustion in a weakly coupled way, and most NO was generated in high temperature region located in the pilot stage. The variation (0.15−0.30) of fuel staging ratio did not affect the flow and combustion structure, but it had a certain influence on the NO emission, which decreased with the increase of the fuel staging ratio.
