Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Investigation of the influence of swirl on a confined coannular swirl jet [PDF]
Large Eddy Simulations are used to model a turbulent confined coannular combustor and examine the effects of swirl on the flow field and mixing. Three separate simulations with relatively high mesh resolutions and different swirl numbers have been ...

Anchoring of premixed jet flames in vitiated crossflow with pulsed nanosecond spark discharge
This paper deals with the effect of non-equilibrium plasma on the anchoring of a premixed jet flame in hot vitiated crossflow at atmospheric pressure. The turbulent vitiated crossflow was generated by an array of 4×4 premixed turbulent jet flames burning

Ignition by Hot Transient Jets in Confined Mixtures of Gaseous Fuels and Air
Ignition of a combustible mixture by a transient jet of hot reactive gas is important for safety of mines, prechamber ignition in IC engines, detonation initiation, and novel constant-volume combustors.

Numerical analysis of reaction-diffusion effects on species mixing rates in turbulent premixed methane-air combustion [PDF]
The scalar mixing time scale, a key quantity in many turbulent combustion models, is investigated for reactive scalars in premixed combustion. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of three-dimensional, turbulent Bunsen flames with reduced methane-air ...

Combustion modelling of turbulent jet ignition in a divided combustion chamber
Turbulent jet ignition is seen as one of the most promising strategies to achieve stable lean-burn operation in modern spark-ignition engines thanks to its ability to promote rapid combustion. A nearly stoichiometric mixture is ignited in a small-volume pre-chamber, following which multiple hot turbulent jets are discharged in the main chamber to ...

The influence of natural gas (NG) on the auto-ignition behavior of hydrogen (H2)/nitrogen (N2) fuel jets injected into a vitiated cross-flow was studied at conditions relevant for practical combustion systems (p = 15 bar, Tcross-flow = 1173 K).
