Abstract

In moderately and highly turbulent, premixed CH4/air flames, two-dimensional simultaneous measurements of instantaneous velocity, temperature, and density have been made using particle image velocimetry (PIV) and planar filtered Rayleigh scattering thermometry (FRS thermometry). The resulting joint data sets enable the direct determination of the Favre mean turbulent flux (FMTF), which is of high interest for combustion modeling. An evaluation strategy is given for the calculation of the FMTF using this joint temperature-velocity data. Measurements indicate the existence of countergradient transport in the highly turbulent bluff-body-stabilized flame, while in the wire-stabilized flame with moderate turbulence, the FMTF fluctuates around zero. Additionally, the direct FMTF determination was tested against other models of the turbulent flux using either a scalar gradient approach or binary conditioned velocity data, following the thin-flame approach of the Bray-Moss-Libby (BML) model. While only the latter shows good agreement with the direct FMTF determination. In the bluff-body-stabilized flame from the two-dimensional plots of the axial FMTF, regions with either dominant gradient diffusion or dominant countergradient diffusion can be identified within the same flame. This feasibility study outlines the potential of simultaneously applied FRS-PIV techniques for the direct determination of unclosed terms in the Favre mean balance equations.
