Effects of injection on flame flashback in supersonic crossflow

Guoyan Zhao et al.

Summary: An approach combining numerical, experimental, and theoretical analyses was used to study the effects of injection parameters on the flame flashback phenomenon. The simulations showed good agreement with experimental observations. Higher fuel equivalence ratios, sharper injection degrees, longer premixing distances, and multiple injectors promoted fuel-flow interactions, enhancing mixing efficiency and fuel penetration. Changes in thermally choked flow and temperature fluctuation thresholds were found to be important factors influencing flame flashback.

Subgrid Models, Reaction Mechanisms, and Combustion Models in Large-Eddy Simulation of Supersonic Combustion

C. Fureby

Summary: In this study, large-eddy simulation (LES) is employed to investigate the flow, mixing, self-ignition, and combustion in a model scramjet combustor. The LES predictions show good agreement with experimental data, providing insights into the intrinsic flow, mixing, and combustion characteristics of the combustor. The study discusses the sensitivity of different modeling parameters and their intrinsic relationships in the context of the LES results.

Mixing and transient combustion processes of scramjet combustor with transverse injector and hypermixer

Wubingyi Shen et al.

Summary: The study investigates the mixing and combustion processes of the transverse injector and hypermixer in a Hyshot combustor under different equivalence ratios, revealing significant impacts of interactions between the stream-wise vortex and hypermixer on mixing and combustion efficiencies. As the equivalence ratio increases, the combustor with the hypermixer maintains higher combustion efficiency compared to the one with the transverse injector, which has already switched to the ramjet mode at high equivalent ratios.

Numerical evaluation of shock wave effects on turbulent mixing layers in a scramjet combustor

Shizhuo Huang et al.

Summary: The study investigates the effects of shock waves on turbulent mixing layers in a supersonic combustor, finding that shock waves lead to complex thickness variations in the mixing zone. The thickening and thinning of mixing layers are quantitatively characterized by the actions of shock waves inducing density increase and vorticity enhancement, respectively.

Large Eddy simulation of a supersonic lifted hydrogen flame with perfectly stirred reactor model

Majie Zhao et al.

Summary: Large Eddy Simulation with a Perfectly Stirred Reactor model (LES-PSR) is developed to simulate supersonic combustion with high-enthalpy flow conditions. The PSR model considers the viscous heating and compressibility effects on the thermo-chemical state, and is validated through a priori analysis. The model accurately captures shock wave structures, flame characteristics, interactions, and lift-off heights, showing good agreement with experimental data.

A brief review on the recent advancement in the field of jet engine-scramjet engine

Nikimoni Das et al.

Summary: SCRAMJET engine is a recent advancement in air breathing hypersonic flight, with ongoing research to improve efficiency through parameters like angle of injection, injector number, and geometry. Overcoming challenges in the combustion process is necessary to develop an efficient scramjet engine, with potential improvements in efficiency by proper air-fuel mixing and injecting fuel inside the cavity. Hydrogen fueled scramjet engines are seen as promising propulsion systems due to advantages like high flammability, low density, and minimal pollution.

Experimental investigation of ethylene/air combustion instability in a model scramjet combustor using image-based methods

Shinji Nakaya et al.

Summary: Experimental investigation of combustion instabilities in supersonic combustion reveals two types of instabilities: cavity shear-layer stabilized combustion and oscillation between jet-wake stabilized and cavity shear-layer ram combustions. Analysis of power spectral density of pressure shows distinct frequency characteristics for each instability, driven by fuel injection oscillation.
