Numerical investigations on an improved counterflow double-channel micro combustor fueled with hydrogen for enhancing thermal performance by Zuo, Wei, E, Jiaqiang, Lin, Rongming

“…(b) The improved combustor achieves the largest thermal enhancement at the hydrogen/air equivalence ratio of 0.6, when the hydrogen/air equivalence ratio is ranged from 0.9 to 0.5. Namely, the mean temperature of upper and right wall is improved by about 27.55 K and 29.55 K, respectively, and the mean nonuniformity of upper and right wall temperature is reduced by about 23.24% and 19.51%, respectively. …”
