| 内容記述 | Numerical modeling of the nonreactive mixing processes associated with a lobed fuel injector in a coflowing air stream is presented. The lobed fuel injector is a device which generates strong streamwise vorticity, producing locally high strain rates which can enhance the molecular mixing of reactants while delaying ignition in a controlled manner. Vortex element modeling is used to simulate flow field evolution and fuel element mixing characteristics for this lobed fuel injector. Quantitative predictions for vorticity generation and qualitative results for streamwise rollup compare well qualitatively with recent experimental investigations of this flow field [Smith et al, Phys. Fluids 9, 667 (1997)]. Parametric studies of the effects of lobe amplitude-to-wavelength ratio, lobe angle, and lobe shape for given flow conditions suggest that geometrical features may be optimized to enhance mixing and control reaction processes. |
