Comparison between using inlet circular jet and elliptic jet in combustion chamber by using twin jet flow propane and methanol

Abstract The current work aimed to improve the combustion behavior of a non-premixed twin-jet inlet. The effect of fuel and air inlet shape under different velocities was studied using ANSYS as the process takes place in species transport and finite rate/eddy dissipation, and the flow is considered...

Description
Summary:Abstract The current work aimed to improve the combustion behavior of a non-premixed twin-jet inlet. The effect of fuel and air inlet shape under different velocities was studied using ANSYS as the process takes place in species transport and finite rate/eddy dissipation, and the flow is considered to be turbulent. Two different shapes (circular–circular and circular–elliptic inlet jets) were investigated, and the results show that the behavior and intensity of the fire are affected by variations in the speed and, geometry of the inlet which affects temperature, heat release rate, combustion efficiency, and equivalent ratios. The optimum air/fuel velocities were found to be 2.5/1.5 with circular–circular inlet jets.
