Laminar Laminar
Turbulent Turbulent
which means a moles of reactant A and b moles of reactant B and so on, combine to
form m moles of product M and n moles of product N and so on
Enthalpy
If no octane and other HC present in products composition, the conservation of mass result:
At high temperature, CO2, H2O and O2 dissociate to some extent into free atoms
Chemical Equilibrium
Equilibrium is the state at which the forward and reverse reactions are
occurring at equal rate
Stoichiometric fuel – air ratio of butane with air is, fst = 0.018
lean mixture, f < 0.018
rich mixture, f > 0.018
The ratio of actual fuel – air ratio to stoichiometric fuel – air ratio is called
Equivalence Ratio (usually for premixed flames)
The ratio of the mass of fuel to the total mass of mixture is called
Mixture Fraction (usually for non-premixed flames)
Fuel – Air Ratio Approximation
heat of combustion
Flame Temperature
Since combustion is a reaction of fuel and oxidant, the amount of heat released
in combustion depends basically on:
Reaction rate f (fuel type, pressure, temperature, mixture fraction)
Combustion intensity f (mixing, turbulence, mixture velocity)
Fuel – air Ratio
introducing swirl
Flame Stabilization (Cont’)
Prime requirements for flame
stabilization:
1. Mixture ratios within
flammability limits
2. Velocities low enough to match
burning velocities
3. Sufficient supply of heat to
maintain reaction in ‘primary
reaction zone’
Bluff Body Flame Stabilization
• In bluff body flame
stabilization, bluff body
is used to create re-
circulating, low axial
velocity and high
turbulent flow at the
primary combustion
zone
• The degree of
stabilization depend on
bluff body shape and
blockage ratio
• Commonly used in
ramjet engine
• or afterburner section of
turbojet or turbofan
engine
Swirling Flow
Swirling flows result from the application of a spiraling motion, with a swirl
velocity component (also known as a tangential or azimuthal velocity component)
being imparted to the flow via the use of swirl vanes, in axial-plus-tangential entry
swirl generator or direct tangential entry into the combustion chamber

Swirling Flows Characteristic
Low swirl number
Small adverse pressure gradient in radial direction
Swirling flow so not change the distribution of axial velocity
No reverse or recirculation flow exist
Can or Tubular
Through flow
Reverse flow
Can-annular
Can-type Combustor
Ease of ignition
Minimum total cross sectional area
Require large airflow rates during
testing
Minimum length and weight
Minimum pressure drop (about 5%)
Difficult to obtain circumferentially
uniform fuel air ratio and outlet
temperature
Requires less cooling air
Cannular-type Combustor
Ease of ignition
Minimum total cross sectional area
Require large airflow rates during
testing
Heavier than annular type but lighter
than can type
Higher pressure drop than annular
type (about 6%)
Easier to obtain circumferentially
uniform fuel air ratio and outlet
temperature than annular type
Reverse Flow Combustor
