A computational assessment of flame speed correlation in an ultra-leanpre-chamber engine

Ghufran Alkhamis et al.

Summary: This study aims to assess the significance of laminar flame speed prediction in the simulation of ultra-lean pre-chamber engine combustion operated with methane. The empirical correlation for laminar flame speed was modified to better represent the flame speeds at ultra-lean engine conditions and was validated against experimental data. The study also investigates the flame topology and relevant turbulent combustion regimes.

Combustion modelling of turbulent jet ignition in a divided combustion chamber

Mattia Olcuire et al.

Summary: The study focused on turbulent jet ignition for stable lean-burn operation, where combustion in the pre-chamber followed a well-stirred reaction mode and the main chamber combustion developed in a well-stirred reactor type. Variations in nozzle diameter and pre-chamber volume affected flame characteristics, with good alignment between CFD results and experimental data noted. A kinetics-based approach is necessary for combustion modeling under these conditions.

Assessment of Turbulent Combustion Models for Simulating Prechamber Ignition in a Natural Gas Engine

Joohan Kim et al.

Summary: Lean combustion is a promising strategy to increase thermal efficiency in internal combustion engines, but unstable ignition and slow flame propagation at fuel-lean conditions limit the high-efficiency engine operating range. Prechamber ignition is considered an effective concept to extend the lean operating limit by providing spatially distributed ignition with multiple turbulent flame-jets.
