Experimental and theoretical investigation of the flashback of a swirling, bluff-body stabilised, premixed flame [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Flashback of an open turbulent, premixed flame in a swirl burner with central bluff-body is considered. The aim is to obtain further understanding of the physical mechanisms responsible for the upstream flame propagation.

Mixing and combustion performance of the mixing-enhanced flame stabilizer with close-coupled gaseous fuel injection

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2023
Mixing of fuel and air is important for improving combustion performance and reducing pollution emissions. To improve the mixing performance of gaseous methane and air, the typical flame stabilizer was modified. A numerical study was conducted to compare

Formation of corner waves in the wake of a partially submerged bluff body [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We study theoretically and numerically the downstream flow near the corner of a bluff body partially submerged at a deadrise depth Δh into a uniform stream of velocity U, in the presence of gravity, g. When the Froude number, Fr=U/√gΔh, is large, a three-

Flow Interference in Bluff Body Wakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This paper presents a two-dimensional numerical simulation of fluid flow around a couple of identical circular cylinders aligned, respectively, along and orthogonal to the main-flow direction, at several distances. A lattice-Boltzmann method (LB) is used.

Generation of adverse pressure gradient in the circumferential flashback of a premixed flame [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Circumferential upstream propagation of a premixed flame in a region confined between two concentric tubes is considered. The cold flow in this configuration features rotational motion and the flame is modelled as an interface separating the burned and ...

Numerical investigation of bluff body shapes and position to enhance heat transfer in double forward-facing step flow

open access: yesResults in Engineering
A two-dimensional, incompressible, steady-state turbulent flow in a double forward-facing step involving forced convection is considered for numerical investigation. A passive method was attempted to enhance heat transfer with the help of a pair of bluff

Modal decomposition of fluid-structure interaction with application to flag flapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Modal decompositions such as proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) and their variants are regularly used to educe physical mechanisms of nonlinear flow phenomena that cannot be easily understood through direct inspection.
