Abstract

A 3D model is established to discuss the influence of combustion reaction on jet characteristics. Based on this, combustion behaviors of supersonic jet for single‐flow postcombustion oxygen lance with various secondary nozzle parameters (diameter, inclination angle, and number) are analyzed. The results indicate that after activating combustion reaction, the jet velocity, dynamic pressure, density, and temperature of primary jet at H = 1.45 m are 1.27, 1.15, 0.56, and 1.97 times than those of without considering the combustion, respectively. Enlarging secondary nozzle diameter is helpful to extend the flame core lengths of primary and secondary jets (the axial distance from lance tip to isotherm of 1773 K) as well as the combustion region. With the increase of secondary nozzle angle, the two flame core lengths both decrease, while the combustion zone increases. Increasing the number of secondary nozzles, the flame core length of primary jet increases while that of the secondary jet decreases, and the combustion region first increases and then decreases. As for the influences of the above parameters on flame core lengths of primary and secondary jets as well as the combustion region, the number is the greatest, followed by the inner diameter, and the inclination angle is the smallest.
