Abstract
The purpose of this work is to demonstrate that there are different stable configurations of lifted edge flames for the same set of parameters. It is shown that when a fuel jet is injected surrounded by oxidiser streams of equal velocity, there are configurations with symmetric and non-symmetric flame structures with respect to the symmetry line of the problem. These two kinds of solutions are both stable and the actual realisation of one or another solution depends on the initial conditions, in particular on the flame ignition parameters. It is shown that this multiple solution phenomenon takes place when the fuel Lewis number is less than unity. The influence of the Zel'dovich number and the injection flow rate is also investigated.
期刊介绍:
Combustion Theory and Modelling is a leading international journal devoted to the application of mathematical modelling, numerical simulation and experimental techniques to the study of combustion. Articles can cover a wide range of topics, such as: premixed laminar flames, laminar diffusion flames, turbulent combustion, fires, chemical kinetics, pollutant formation, microgravity, materials synthesis, chemical vapour deposition, catalysis, droplet and spray combustion, detonation dynamics, thermal explosions, ignition, energetic materials and propellants, burners and engine combustion. A diverse spectrum of mathematical methods may also be used, including large scale numerical simulation, hybrid computational schemes, front tracking, adaptive mesh refinement, optimized parallel computation, asymptotic methods and singular perturbation techniques, bifurcation theory, optimization methods, dynamical systems theory, cellular automata and discrete methods and probabilistic and statistical methods. Experimental studies that employ intrusive or nonintrusive diagnostics and are published in the Journal should be closely related to theoretical issues, by highlighting fundamental theoretical questions or by providing a sound basis for comparison with theory.
