Abstract

The axial sound field was added to the ethanol spray flame as a perturbation element to study the dynamic response and combustion characteristics. A forced acoustic field is applied to a small oscillating flame. In cases where the frequency of the external sound field matches the eigenfrequency, even small amplitude self-excited flames demonstrate significant instability. As the intensity of the sound field increases, the amplitude of pressure oscillations sharply rises, and the pressure and flame heat release oscillations are in-phase. When the sound field operates at frequencies other than the eigenfrequency, it has an inhibitory effect on the evaporation and combustion process of ethanol droplets. Consequently, intensifying the sound field leads to a reduction in both the area of the evaporation combustion zone and the axial temperature of the flame. The CO formation is influenced by both temperature and the sound field, showing a pattern of increasing and then decreasing with the increase of sound intensity. Additionally, NOx generation exhibits higher emission concentrations in low-temperature and short flames, which is more likely to prompt NOx and is not closely related to frequency.

喷射火焰的声学干扰特性研究

为研究动态响应和燃烧特性，在乙醇喷射火焰中加入了轴向声场作为扰动元素。在小型振荡火焰上施加了强制声场。在外部声场频率与特征频率相匹配的情况下，即使是小振幅自激火焰也会表现出明显的不稳定性。随着声场强度的增加，压力振荡的振幅急剧上升，压力和火焰放热振荡同相。当声场工作在特征频率以外的频率时，会对乙醇液滴的蒸发和燃烧过程产生抑制作用。因此，声场的增强会导致蒸发燃烧区面积和火焰轴向温度的降低。一氧化碳的形成受温度和声场的影响，随着声强的增加呈现先增加后减少的模式。此外，氮氧化物的生成在低温和短火焰中表现出更高的排放浓度，这更有可能催生氮氧化物，且与频率关系不大。

期刊介绍： Thermal Science and Engineering Progress (TSEP) publishes original, high-quality research articles that span activities ranging from fundamental scientific research and discussion of the more controversial thermodynamic theories, to developments in thermal engineering that are in many instances examples of the way scientists and engineers are addressing the challenges facing a growing population – smart cities and global warming – maximising thermodynamic efficiencies and minimising all heat losses. It is intended that these will be of current relevance and interest to industry, academia and other practitioners. It is evident that many specialised journals in thermal and, to some extent, in fluid disciplines tend to focus on topics that can be classified as fundamental in nature, or are ‘applied’ and near-market. Thermal Science and Engineering Progress will bridge the gap between these two areas, allowing authors to make an easy choice, should they or a journal editor feel that their papers are ‘out of scope’ when considering other journals. The range of topics covered by Thermal Science and Engineering Progress addresses the rapid rate of development being made in thermal transfer processes as they affect traditional fields, and important growth in the topical research areas of aerospace, thermal biological and medical systems, electronics and nano-technologies, renewable energy systems, food production (including agriculture), and the need to minimise man-made thermal impacts on climate change. Review articles on appropriate topics for TSEP are encouraged, although until TSEP is fully established, these will be limited in number. Before submitting such articles, please contact one of the Editors, or a member of the Editorial Advisory Board with an outline of your proposal and your expertise in the area of your review.
