Numerical simulation of powder fuel mixing characteristics in supersonic circular combustion chamber
To explore the combustion organization of a powder-fueled scramjets, a numerical investigation was conducted to analyze powder fuel mixing characteristics in supersonic combustors. This study systematically investigates particle-air mixing dynamics in a supersonic circular cavity-based combustor through parametric variations of injection positions and swirl angles. Subsequently, an innovative partially-covered cavity configuration is proposed, and its mixing efficiency is evaluated under different injection angles. Numerical simulations demonstrated that in leading-edge injection configurations, the transverse jet-induced bow shock caused deflection of the X-shaped shockwave system toward the injection port in the annular combustor. Comparatively, direct particle injection into the cavity recirculation zone enhanced particle residence time; For upper-wall injection configurations, particle residence time (τ) in exhibited a positive correlation with swirl injection angle(θ), reaching τ = 9 ms at θ = 90°; In partially-covered cavity configurations, swirl injection of fuel enhanced particle residence, with optimal performance achieved at Lc = 35 mm and θ = 60°, and the particle mixing degree reached about 0.8.
