Nonpremixed flame control with microjets
Abstract
The hydrodynamic control of buoyant nonpremixed flames is investigated by injecting high-momentum fluid through a central microjet. The resulting flame characteristics are mapped for jets of different strengths. The flame height decreases linearly with an increase in the microjet Froude number as the flow changes from a buoyancy-dominated to a momentum-controlled regime. The flame luminosity is reduced by injecting stronger microjets. The jets …
