Turbulent flame speed and morphology of pure ammonia flames and blends with methane or hydrogen

Seif Zitouni et al.

Summary: Ammonia shows promise as a hydrogen-energy carrier and carbon-free fuel, but there is limited research on ammonia combustion under turbulent conditions. This study examines the turbulent flame speeds of ammonia/air, ammonia/methane, and ammonia/hydrogen using a spherically expanding flame configuration. The results show that the flame propagation speed of ammonia/air increases exponentially with increasing hydrogen amount, and that the turbulent to laminar flame speed ratio increases with turbulence intensity. Flame morphology and stretch sensitivity analysis indicate that flame curvature remains relatively similar for pure ammonia and ammonia-based mixtures, and the wrinkling ratio increases with both increasing ammonia fraction and turbulent intensity.

Effects of initial mixture temperature and pressure on laminar burning velocity and Markstein length of ammonia/air premixed laminar flames

Ryuhei Kanoshima et al.

Summary: The study focused on investigating the laminar burning velocities and Markstein lengths of ammonia/air mixtures under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, and compared the effects with methane/air mixtures. Results showed that temperature exponent of ammonia flames was larger and had greater impact on reaction rate compared to methane flames, while pressure exponent of ammonia flames was closer to zero.

Intrinsic instability of different fuels spherically expanding flames: A review

Francis Oppong et al.

Summary: This article summarizes the experimental, theoretical, and numerical investigations on the intrinsic instability of different fuels premixed flames. Physicochemical parameters such as pressure and equivalence ratio have significant effects on instability. However, inconsistencies in the evaluation of certain parameters in the theoretical analysis cause differences between theoretical, numerical, and experimental results.

An investigation of ammonia primary flame combustor concepts for emissions reduction with OH *, NH2* and NH * chemiluminescence at elevated conditions

Daniel Pugh et al.

Summary: With the increasing interest in NH3 as a potential energy carrier, combustor designs and fuel concepts need to be optimized to reduce NOx emissions. The introduction of staged combustor concepts has been identified as a way to limit NOx production, improve combustor efficiency, and reduce unburned NH3. The efficacy of secondary air staging is sensitive to primary flame behavior, and while low NOx emissions can be achieved at rich conditions, high unburned NH3 can lead to greater global NOx concentrations.

Experimental investigation on ammonia combustion behavior in a spark-ignition engine by means of laminar and turbulent expanding flames

Charles Lhuillier et al.

Summary: The study aims to elucidate the combustion characteristics of ammonia blends under engine-relevant turbulent conditions, finding that the effects of hydrogen or methane enrichment observed in SI engines cannot be fully explained by the measured laminar burning velocities. The combustion regimes studied are at the boundary between thin and broken reaction zones, influenced by flame-turbulence interactions.

Flame front evolution and laminar flame parameter evaluation of buoyancy-affected ammonia/air flames

Xu Chen et al.

Summary: This study analyzed flame characteristics of ammonia/air mixtures under different conditions, showing that flame velocity decreases with stretch rate and the initial pressure increase leads to a decrease in laminar burning velocity and Markstein length. The flame thickness of ammonia/air mixtures decreases with initial pressure increase, while NO concentration decreases significantly with the increase of equivalence ratio.

A review on ammonia, ammonia-hydrogen and ammonia-methane fuels

Wai Siong Chai et al.

Summary: The combustion of fuels for energy generation is crucial for human activities, but it results in emissions that cause environmental complications and health risks. The replacement of conventional fuels for zero carbon emission is important, with ammonia offering advantages over hydrogen as a carbon-free fuel, but facing challenges such as low burning velocity and high emissions. Therefore, the study of secondary fuels like hydrogen and methane to assist ammonia combustion is essential.
