Abstract
Transient head-on quenching of laminar premixed methane flames diluted with hot combustion products is analyzed using full-chemistry 1D DNS. The impact of the dilution level, pressure and wall temperature on carbon monoxide (CO) emissions is investigated. Increasing dilution level and pressure reduce peak average near-wall CO concentrations, and reduce the near-wall CO reduction rate. However, the peak average near-wall CO and near-wall CO reduction rate increase with increasing wall temperature. Analysis of the species transport budget for CO near the wall before, during and after quenching indicates that there are conditions where diffusion is the dominant transport term. As a consequence, it may be possible to model the near-wall CO using only the integrated diffusion term within certain spatial regions. Dilution increases the size of these regions, whereas increasing pressure reduces this size.
