Can the phenomenon of turbulence facilitated ignition through differential diffusion occur in laser-induced spark ignition?

Y. R. Chen et al.

Summary: This study experimentally investigates the presence of turbulence facilitated ignition (TFI) in both conventional electrode spark ignition (ESI) and laser-induced spark ignition (LSI). The results show that TFI exists in ESI under certain conditions, but not in LSI. This difference is attributed to the deformation of the laser kernel and the effect of negative curvature segments.

Analysis on ignition kernel formation in a quiescent mixture: Different characteristic time scales and critical heating powers

Dehai Yu et al.

Summary: This study provides a theoretical analysis of flame ignition, focusing on the formation of ignition kernel induced by external heating. The study reveals the three stages and characteristic time scales of ignition kernel formation, and explores the impact of external heating power density on the delay times for reaction front generation and propagation.

Ignition of dimethyl ether/air mixtures by hot particles: Impact of low temperature chemical reactions

Yiqing Wang et al.

Summary: Understanding and characterizing ignition of flammable mixtures by hot particles is crucial for assessing and reducing the risk of accidental ignition and explosion. This study aims to numerically assess the effects of low-temperature chemistry (LTC) on ignition by hot particles. The results show that LTC can substantially accelerate ignition via high-temperature chemistry (HTC) in a certain range of hot particle temperatures.

Effects of stretch-chemistry interaction on chemical pathways for strained and curved hydrogen/air premixed flames

Xinyi Chen et al.

Summary: Stretch-chemistry interaction can alter flame structure and combustion properties, affecting chemical pathways differently based on Lewis numbers. Negative and positive stretch rates have opposite effects on hydrogen oxidation pathways, with different influences from hydrodynamic strain and flame curvature.

Two ignition transition modes at small and large distances between electrodes of a lean primary reference automobile fuel/air mixture at 373 K with Lewis number >> 1

Shenqyang (Steven) Shy et al.

Summary: The study identified two ignition transition modes, with a non-monotonic transition at small electrode gap and a regular transition at large electrode gap. The changes in ignition energy with increasing turbulent fluctuating velocity indicate that turbulence plays a crucial role in the ignition process.
