Impact of Infinite Thin Flame Approach on the Evaluation of Flame Speed using Spherically Expanding Flames [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Technology, 2017
AbstractCombustion is an important part of most current and future overall energy‐conversion systems, especially if using renewable fuels in energy‐storage concepts. Therefore, the laminar flame speed, which is a key parameter for the design of combustion systems, needs to be known for a growing multitude of different thermodynamic conditions and fuels.

Type Ia Supernova Explosion Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Because calibrated light curves of Type Ia supernovae have become a major tool to determine the local expansion rate of the Universe and also its geometrical structure, considerable attention has been given to models of these events over the past couple ...

Laminar flame speed measurements and laser absorption characterization of high-temperature, premixed ethane–air flames

open access: yesApplications in Energy and Combustion Science
Laminar flame speed, temperature, and pressure measurements were conducted in high-temperature, spherically expanding ethane–air flames. The experiments were conducted in a shock tube, which allows access to a high-temperature regime previously under ...

Double-detonation supernovae of sub-Chandrasekhar mass white dwarfs

open access: yes, 2007
In the "double-detonation sub-Chandrasekhar" model for type Ia supernovae, a carbon-oxygen (C + O) white dwarf accumulates sufficient amounts of helium such that a detonation ignites in that layer before the Chandrasekhar mass is reached. This detonation

Experimental n-Hexane-Air Expanding Spherical Flames

open access: yes, 2018
The effects of initial pressure and temperature on the laminar burning speed of n-hexane-air mixtures were investigated experimentally and numerically. The spherically expanding flame technique with a nonlinear extrapolation procedure was employed to measure the laminar burning speed at atmospheric and sub-atmospheric pressures and at nominal ...

Uncertainty in stretch extrapolation of laminar flame speed from expanding spherical flames

open access: yesProceedings of the Combustion Institute, 2015
Abstract The present work investigated the uncertainties associated with the extrapolation of stretched flames to zero stretch in flame speed measurements using expanding spherical flames. Direct numerical simulations of time evolution of expanding spherical flames from a small ignition kernel to a propagating front with sufficiently large radius ...
