The structure of hydrogen jet flame diluted by CO2 in air flow is studied by various visualization techniques, such as schlieren, direct photograph, tracer injection and reactive Mie scattering method, which allow understanding of the influence of CO2 on the characteristics of the hydrogen jet flame. The experimental result indicates that the flame structure consists of laminar fuel jet and surrounding reaction zone near the nozzle exit. When the CO2 fraction is increased, the width of the fuel jet grows and the reaction zone is reduced in size. These observations are further confirmed by quantitative measurements of temperature and velocity fields in the flame, which are evaluated by thermocouple and particle image velocimetry (PIV), respectively. These results indicate that the flame temperature is decreased and the flow rate of the fuel jet is increased by the influence of diluents, which are due to the reduced calorific value and larger density of fuel, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
