Abstract

The present work is devoted to the study of the effect of ambient pressure on non-premixed turbulent combustion of a mixture of 20% of hydrogen and 80% of methane. The simulations were conducted using the PDF approach and modified k-ε turbulence model. The flamelet model was used with the GRI 2.11 detailed kinetic mechanism. The flame consists of two coaxial jets of air and a jet of CH4–H2 mixture with pilot flame. After validating the model used we have varied the ambient pressure from 1 to 10 atm. We observed that the increase of ambient pressure leads to a slight increase of the flame temperature and the mass fraction of NO and a decrease in the radial and axial expansions.
