Analysis of auto-ignition of heated hydrogen-air mixtures with different detailed reaction mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Auto-ignition processes of hydrogen, diluted with nitrogen, in heated air are numerically investigated by means of an unsteady laminar flamelet approach in mixture fraction space. The focus is on the auto-ignition delay time and the most reactive mixture

Ignition by Hot Transient Jets in Confined Mixtures of Gaseous Fuels and Air

open access: yesJournal of Combustion, 2016
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.

Ultra-Lean Premixed Turbulent Combustion: Challenges of RANS Modelling

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The main challenge of improving spark ignition (SI) engines to achieve ever increasing thermal efficiencies and near-zero pollutant emissions today concerns developing turbulent combustion under homogeneous ultra-lean premixed mixtures (HULP).

Blast Wave Generated by Delayed Ignition of Under-Expanded Hydrogen Free Jet at Ambient and Cryogenic Temperatures

open access: yesHydrogen, 2022
An under-expanded hydrogen jet from high-pressure equipment or storage tank is a potential incident scenario. Experiments demonstrated that the delayed ignition of a highly turbulent under-expanded hydrogen jet generates a blast wave able to harm people ...
