摘要
Capturing the transient evolution of soot under diesel-like conditions through experimental methods is challenging. The transient formation characteristics and kinetic of soot in-flame of n-dodecane spray under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions is investigated in present study. Experimentally, the combined extinction and radiation (CER) methodology and combustion image velocimetry (CIV) are applied to capture the transient distributions of soot volume fraction, soot temperature, and soot velocity field of n-dodecane spray flames from a single-hole injector under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. Numerically, a coupled model combining the Eulerian spray model and unsteady flame progress variable combustion model is developed in the OpenFOAM environment. The numerical results of the spray combustion process exhibit a high level of agreement with experimental data. The results show that, compared to the reference condition, in the lower injection pressure condition, the shorter lift-off length (LOL) and the longer soot residence time within the interval equivalence ratio Φ 2 significantly propel the formation of soot, leading to an 80% increase in peak soot mass. In the higher-temperature condition, there is no significant difference in the soot residence time within the interval Φ > 2, while the shorter LOL leads the fuel to ignite at higher equivalence ratios, resulting in a significant increase in soot formation?with an 88% increase in peak soot mass. In the oxygen-rich condition, the flame temperature is the highest, which increase the particle velocity of soot. Consequently, the residence time of soot within the interval Φ > 2 is significantly reduced. Additionally, owing to the lower equivalence ratio in the flame, peak soot mass is reduced by 42%. © 2024 Xi'an Jiaotong University. All rights reserved.
