Combustion is a reactive oxidation process that releases energy bound in chemical
compounds used as fuels─ energy that is needed for power generation, transportation …

The environmental, economic, and energy problems of the modern world motivate the
development of alternative fuel technologies. Multifuel technology can help reduce the …

Abstract Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is a fundamental research tool to study gas turbines
and aero-engine combustors. In LES, although rarely addressed systematically, it is known …

Abstract Large Eddy Simulation (LES) with Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) is used to
analyze the impact of H 2-enrichment on the flame structure and combustion dynamics of a …

Puffing and micro-explosion processes in composite water/fuel (kerosene, Diesel fuel and
rapeseed oil) droplets are investigated experimentally and numerically, using the recently …

This study investigates H 2-air flames obtained with a laboratory scale coaxial dual-swirl
injector in which fuel and oxidizer are injected separately. Two flame archetypes are …

The explosive breakup of liquid, emulsion, and slurry droplets enables a several-fold
increase of their evaporation surface area. This effect reduces the energy and time required …

This work analyzes pressure and hydrogen enrichment effects on the stabilization and
combustion dynamics of a partially-premixed swirled-stabilized methane flame operated at …

Sudden changes of flame shape are an undesired, yet poorly understood feature of swirl
combustors used in gas turbines. The present work studies flame shape transition …

The paper examines the combined effects of several interacting thermo-acoustic and
hydrodynamic instability mechanisms that are known to influence self-excited combustion …
