Abstract

To study the combustion characteristics of turbulent jet flames under different gravity environments, the centerline temperature distribution curve and air entrainment rate of turbulent jet flame from microgravity to hyper gravity was carried out by CFD simulation. Five different gravity values have been considered. The simulation results show that the flame temperature decreases with the increase of gravity in the intermittent flame region and plume region. The maximum temperature decreases with the increase of gravity, while their position decreases accordingly. The evolution of air entrainment has been analyzed under different gravity environments. Based on the hydroxyl concentration distribution, a correlation of flame height has been obtained through dimensionless analysis. The evolution of air entrainment has been described under different heat release rate and gravity environments.
