Abstract
Abstract This manuscript presents Computational Fluid Dynamics simulation of a ramjet combustor using Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes approach for turbulence with flamelet combustion modelling. In the approach a one-dimensional premixed flame simulation is performed to cover a wide range of mixture fraction space. After a mesh study, effects of turbulence, Realizable k - ε and SST k - ω , and combustion modelling, Steady Laminar Flamelet and Flamelet Generated Manifold, are investigated in detail. The Flamelet Generated Manifold model that offers a reaction delay by employing an additional progress variable, shows there are no reactions taking place in the vicinity of jet inlets, hence the unrealistic temperature rise that is seen in the case of using Steady Laminar Flamelet is not observed. A study on the choice of progress variable based on the combustion products is carried out. The present study readily demonstrates good predictability of Flamelet Generated Manifold combustion modelling in such a dual inlet ramjet combustion chamber.
摘要:本文采用雷诺平均纳维-斯托克斯方法对冲压发动机燃烧室湍流流场进行了计算流体动力学模拟。在该方法中,一维预混火焰模拟覆盖了大范围的混合分数空间。在网格研究的基础上,详细研究了湍流的影响,Realizable k - ε和SST k - ω,以及燃烧模型,稳定层流小火焰和小火焰生成流形。Flamelet生成歧管模型通过使用额外的进度变量来提供反应延迟,表明在喷气入口附近没有发生反应,因此在使用Steady Laminar Flamelet的情况下看不到不切实际的温度上升。对基于燃烧产物的进度变量选择进行了研究。本研究很好地证明了在这种双入口冲压发动机燃烧室中火焰生成歧管燃烧模型的良好可预测性。
