• Abstract

  This project consists of theoretical, numerical and experimental investigation of diffusion flames established by fuel ejection from a porous cylindrical burner in the middle of two impinging jets of air. This new burner configuration allows the control of air transport to the flame, a process known as entrainment. The greater the entrainment, the greater the transport of air to the flame…

• Abstract

  This project proposal has as objective to develop and analyze a simplified mathematical model to describe the droplet combustion in mutual interaction. To avoid the complexity involved in the advanced models able to describe complete spray combustion, the spray-flamelet model was developed, based in the flamelet model of turbulent combustion, under reasonable simplifier considerations. In…

• Abstract

  The proposed project intends to perform an theoretical analysis of the characteristics of diffusion flames, originated from the burning of liquid fuels, established inside inert porous media (in-situ combustion). The phenomenon of porous medium combustion is present in a wide variety of applications, from radiant industrial burners to the burning of solid propellants of bursters and the …

• Abstract

  The present project focus on the study of instabilities in diffusion flames established in a porous inert medium. Through a linear stability analysis, we intend to analyze, theoretically, the existence and onset of cellular/pulsating diffusion flames in a porous inert medium. We consider a one-step chemical reaction and a large activation energy limit. Aiming to analyze only the instabili…
