Pages : 79
Book Description
The objective of this research is to simulate normal detonation combustion which is a mode of operation for a Pulsed Detonation Engine (PDE). A supersonic flow with stoichiometric hydrogen-air mixture is made to impinge on a wedge, thus resulting in increasing the temperature and pressure across a shock wave leading to the formation of detonation wave. Different modes of the operations can be simulated by varying the incoming Mach number, pressure, temperature and equivalence ratio. For the case of normal detonation wave mode which is an unsteady process, after the detonation being initiated due to the shock induced by the wedge, the detonation wave propagates upstream in the flow as the combustion chamber Mach number is lower than the C-J Mach number. The concept of detonation wave moving upstream and downstream is controlled by changing the incoming flow field properties. By this method the unsteady normal detonation wave is made to oscillate in the combustion chamber leading to a continuous detonation combustion. The intention of this research is to simulate two cycles of detonation combustion in order to determine the frequency and to obtain the variation of flow properties at the exit plain with respect to time.

Turbulent Combustion Modeling
Author: Tarek Echekki
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400704127
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
Turbulent combustion sits at the interface of two important nonlinear, multiscale phenomena: chemistry and turbulence. Its study is extremely timely in view of the need to develop new combustion technologies in order to address challenges associated with climate change, energy source uncertainty, and air pollution. Despite the fact that modeling of turbulent combustion is a subject that has been researched for a number of years, its complexity implies that key issues are still eluding, and a theoretical description that is accurate enough to make turbulent combustion models rigorous and quantitative for industrial use is still lacking. In this book, prominent experts review most of the available approaches in modeling turbulent combustion, with particular focus on the exploding increase in computational resources that has allowed the simulation of increasingly detailed phenomena. The relevant algorithms are presented, the theoretical methods are explained, and various application examples are given. The book is intended for a relatively broad audience, including seasoned researchers and graduate students in engineering, applied mathematics and computational science, engine designers and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) practitioners, scientists at funding agencies, and anyone wishing to understand the state-of-the-art and the future directions of this scientifically challenging and practically important field.

Numerical Simulation of Pulse Detonation Phenomena in a Parallel Environment
Author: Prashaanth Ravindran

ISBN: 9780542467868
Category : Aerospace engineering
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
The objective of this work was to develop a parallel algorithm that would be used in the simulation of the detonation process in the chamber of a pulse detonation engine. The emphasis is laid on reducing computation time while maintaining the accuracy of the solution and subsequently developing a numerical solution to be in agreement with real-world physical characteristics of a detonation wave initiation, build-up and progression. The flow is assumed to be unsteady, inviscid and non heat conducting. To adhere to real time effects, the flow equations are coupled with finite rate chemistry and the vibrational energy equation are based on a two-temperature model, to account for possible vibrational non-equilibrium. Finite Volume formulation is employed to ensure conservation and to allow proper handling of discontinuities. Runge-Kutta integration scheme has been utilized to obtain a time-accurate solution, with Roes flux difference splitting scheme applied to cell face fluxes. For higher-order spatial accuracy, MUSCL technique is employed. Equation stiffness has been taken care of by observing point implicit treatment of the source terms and detonation is initiated with the application of a localized hot-spot. The parallel algorithm has been developed using Message Passing Interface standard developed by the Argonne National Laboratory for the purposes of solving equations in a distributed environment. A proto-cluster of Beowulf type consisting of 8-nodes has been assembled and made operational, and an algorithm which performs space-time calculations simultaneously on the nodes has been successfully developed. A two-step global model for Hydrogen-Air mixture has been selected for validating the parallel algorithm with existing results, to establish veracity and accuracy while reducing computation time to almost a fourth. Excellent agreement has been found on comparison of the results with the same code when solved in a single processor.
