Abstract: | This paper focuses on investigating the interaction effects for swirl and bluff-body in stabilized flame process. Particle
image velocimetry was used to measure velocity fields in three burners. First, the comparison of flames in bluff-body stabilized
burners with and without swirl is presented. The results of the experiments present the variations of bluff-body stabilized
flame when swirl is added into burner: the maximum reverse flow velocity and the maximum mean average radial velocity decrease;
the maximum radial root-mean squared fluctuating (rms) velocity increases; the values of the axial velocity peak on the side
of nozzle axis are lower, and the distance between the peak and centerline is bigger; the location of the maximum radial rms
velocity moves to the outlet of annular air-flow from central recirculation zone (CRZ). Then, the comparison of flames in
swirl burners with and without bluff-body is provided. The results of the experiments show the changes of swirling flame when
bluff-body is added into swirl burner: the air vortex in the CRZ moves to the burner; the peak values of axial mean and rms
velocity decrease; the distance between centerline and the mean axial and rms velocity peak increase; the peak of mean radial
velocity decreases, and the peak of rms raidial velocity increase. The data from this experiment can also be established as
benchmarks for the development and validation of combustion numerical simulations. |
