A novel soot concentration field estimator applied to sooting ethylene/air laminar flames [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2019
Soot formation modeling, when incorporated into computational fluid dynamics of industrial devices, can be numerically prohibitive. Nonetheless, there remains a significant push to predict soot formation, so as to aid in environmentally sustainable ...

Measurement of Soot Concentration in Burner Diffusion Flames through Emission Spectroscopy with Particle Swarm Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Measuring soot concentration in a burner flame is essential for an in-depth understanding of the formation mechanism and to abate its generation. This paper presents an improved emission spectroscopy (ES) method that uses an adaptive particle swarm ...

Numerical investigation of soot mass concentration in compression ignition diesel engine

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2016
Soot particles, carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, oxides of sulphur, and hydrocarbon are the emissions produced from diesel engine combustion. Those emissions species are undesirable since they give detrimental impacts to the atmosphere and human ...

Experimental Study of Oxygen Depletion Effects on Soot Morphology and Nanostructure in Coflow Diffusion Aviation Fuel (RP-3) Flames

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Oxygen concentration is a significant factor affecting soot formation and oxidation. However, there are few studies that have focused on the morphology and nanostructure characteristics of soot in aviation kerosene, oxygen-depleted combustion flames.

The concentration of soot as a factor of change in the air quality [PDF]

open access: yesPraxis Medica, 2016
Introduction: Soot usually occurs as a result of incomplete combustion of fuels containing carbon (fossil fuels - wood, coal). Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental threats to the urban population, which has harmful effects on human ...

Formation of Soot in Oxygen-Enriched Turbulent Propane Flames at the Technical Scale

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Soot is an important component for heat transfer in combustion processes. However, it is also a harmful pollutant for humans, and strict emissions legislation motivates research on how to control soot formation and release. The formation of soot is known
