| 内容記述 | A general formulation of some effects of swirl on turbulent mixing is given. The basis for the analysis is that momentum transport is enhanced by turbulence resulting from rotational instability of the fluid field. An appropriate form for the turbulent eddy viscosity is obtained by mixing length type arguments. The result takes the form of a corrective factor that is a function of the swirl and acts to increase the eddy viscosity. The factor is based upon the initial mixing conditions implying that the rotational turbulence decays in a manner similar to that of free shear turbulence. Existing experimental data for free jet combustion are adequately matched by using the modifying factor to relate the effects of swirl on eddy viscosity. The model is extended and applied to the supersonic combustion of a ring jet of hydrogen injected into a constant area annular air stream. The computations demonstrate that swirling the flow could: (1) reduce the burning length by one half, (2) result in more uniform burning across the annulus width, and (3) open the possibility of optimization of the combustion characteristics by locating the fuel jet between the inner wall and center of the annulus width. |
