Topology and flame speeds of turbulent premixed flame kernels in supersonic flows
Abstract Premixed flame kernels exposed to a mean expanding supersonic channel flow are examined using experiments and large-eddy simulations. Four cases, spanning three Mach numbers and two equivalence ratios, are explored. Numerical results are processed similarly to and compared with experimental data.

Numerical Study and Experimental Validation of Minimum Ignition Energy for Microwave Spark Ignition
Microwave plasma ignition has the potential for energy savings and emission reductions, and the minimum ignition energy (MIE) and the lean limit can be determined by microwave spark plugs (MSPs) under the same microwave power. To predict the relationship

Spark Ignited Turbulent Flame Kernel Growth [PDF]
An experimental study of the effects of spark power and of incomplete fuel-air mixing on spark-ignited flame kernel growth was conducted in turbulent propane-air mixtures at 1 atm, 300K conditions. The results showed that increased spark power resulted in an increased growth rate, where the effect of short duration breakdown sparks was found to persist

A direct numerical simulation of Jet A flame kernel quenching
Abstract The safe operation of aeronautical engines requires an understanding of flame ignition, propagation and extinction. In this study, direct numerical simulations are performed using a 29 species reduced chemical mechanism for jet fuel surrogate Jet A to understand the flame quenching process. Initially laminar spherical flames of varying sizes
