Abstract

Four different secondary airflow angles for the turbine inter-guide-vane burners with trapped vortex cavity were designed. Comparative analysis between combustion performances influenced by the variation of secondary airflow angle was carried out by using numerical simulation method. The turbulence was modeled using the Scale-Adaptive Simulation (SAS) turbulence model. Four cases with different secondary jet-flow angles (−45°, 0°, 30°, 60°) were studied. It was observed that the case with secondary jet-flows at 60° angle directed upwards (1) has good mixing effect; (2) mixing effect is the best although the flow field distributions inside both of the cavity and the main flow passage for the four models are very similar; (3) has complete combustion and symmetric temperature distribution on the exit section of guide vane (X = 70 mm), with uniform temperature distribution, less temperature gradient, and shrank local high temperature regions in the notch located on the guide vane.
