Description

Combustion Chamber (Transient) Description

In this project, we simulate a combustion chamber by ANSYS Fluent software applying a Transient and Pressure-based solver, considering the gravity effect. Inside the combustion chamber are three main parts: the air inlet pipe, the burner section, and the outlet pipe.

Inside the chamber is a thin wall with several cavities of varying dimensions. The small primary holes for cooling the chamber wall by layering flow, and the next big ones are to keep the flame in the middle of the chamber. The geometry of the present model is 3-D, and Design Modeler software designs it.

ANSYS Meshing software performs the meshing of the current model. The mesh type is unstructured. We use a triangular grid, and the element number is 694928.

Methodology

We simulate the combustion chamber by applying a Transient and Pressure-based solver, considering the gravity effect. We use the Standard Wall Function and K-epsilon RNG model for the turbulence equation since the flow inside the chamber combustion is relatively complex.

We apply the Species Transport Model to model the combustion. Mass flow rates of the air and the fuel (CH4) equal 0.02 kg.s-1 and 0.0006 m.s-1, respectively, with a temperature of 300k. Also, the chamber’s outer wall is adiabatic. in this case, there are two steps of methane-air combustion, with six species involved in the reaction: methane, Oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide.

Mass fractions are .23 and .77 for Oxygen and nitrogen, respectively.

Combustion Chamber (Transient) Conclusion

For the current simulation, we present both Volume rendering(3D Contour) and streamlines of velocity, pressure, temperature, density, and mass fraction of components to give much insight into the problem. Briefly, the air and Methane-air enter the domain from the around and bottom surfaces of the geometry, respectively, and make a combustion region.

Temperature and pressure increase and the flow then goes to the outlet at a higher speed, as depicted in the Figures, which is the main challenge of this simulation.

    I found the use of different cooling hole sizes for layering flow and flame retention fascinating. Is there a particular reason for the sizes chosen in the design of the cooling holes, or were they determined through trial and error?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      The sizes of the cooling holes in the chamber wall were carefully chosen based on theoretical calculations and simulation testing. They are designed to optimize heat transfer and to ensure that the flame is maintained appropriately in the middle of the combustion chamber. The smaller holes are engineered to provide sufficient cooling by layering the flow of combustion gases, while the larger ones are designed to influence the flame position and stability. The exact dimensions are a result of design optimization and computational analysis.

    What model is used for turbulent chemistry interaction?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      In this project, it is assumed that the speed of the chemical reaction after mixing fuel and air is infinite and occurs as soon as the chemical reaction is mixed; for this purpose, the eddy dissipation model is used.

    I followed the combustion chamber tutorial for an education project, and I’m blown away by the detail level! One quick question: how does the cooling of the chamber wall through those small primary holes affect combustion stability?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      The cooling of the chamber wall through the small primary holes helps to maintain a lower temperature on the wall itself, which serves to protect the structural integrity of the chamber over time. This cooling layer of air additionally ensures that the combustion flames are kept centered within the combustion chamber, away from the walls, contributing to the stability and efficiency of the combustion process. By preventing the flame from touching the walls, these holes help avoid hot spots that could lead to material failure or unintended ignition points.

    Is radiation considered in this combustion chamber simulation and how do you account for different materials sensitivity to temperature?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      For this simulation, there’s no specific mention of radiation being considered, but it’s commonly included in combustion simulations because it can significantly affect temperature distribution and emissions. Material sensitivity to temperature is typically accounted for by setting temperature-dependent material properties within the simulation software, such as specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and emissivity values.

    Do you provide specific details about the reaction mechanisms used for the methane-air combustion in the simulation, like the reaction rates and stoichiometric coefficients?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      We cover important parameters related to combustion, like mass flow rates and mass fractions; however, for detailed reaction mechanisms, reaction rates, and stoichiometric coefficients, those are often defined in the setup of the simulation depending on the model’s specificity in ANSYS Fluent. If needed, I recommend checking the product’s documentation or contacting MR CFD for in-depth details on the combustion reaction used in the tutorial.

    I’m puzzled about something in the combustion chamber simulation. What exactly do the small primary holes do for cooling? Do they allow for some cooling medium to flow in, or is it just the air doing the cooling?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      The small primary holes in the combustion chamber wall serve as passageways for cool air to flow through. This layered airflow acts as a protective blanket over the wall, shielding it from the intense heat generated by the combustion process. This flow of air effectively cools the chamber wall and helps to maintain the structural integrity and temperature of the wall within safe operational limits.

      Yes, it is possible to adjust the mass flow rates of air and fuel (CH4) in the simulation to study different combustion intensities within the chamber.

    The tutorial was excellent in walking through each step of the process. The visualization of the flame position through volume rendering was particularly helpful. Could you elaborate on how the software handles the reaction rates for the combustion process?

    • Avatar Of Mr Cfd Support

      MR CFD Support

      In the tutorial for the combustion chamber simulation using ANSYS Fluent, the software applies the Species Transport Model to tackle the combustion process. Specifically, reaction rates are computed based on predefined reaction mechanisms and their corresponding rate equations, which depend on factors such as temperature, pressure, and reactant concentrations. Adaptive time-stepping might be used to capture the transient nature of the combustion accurately. ANSYS Fluent provides detailed options for setting up the kinetics of the reactions, allowing the accurate prediction of species production, consumption, and the resultant temperature fields within the chamber.

      MR CFD’s admin is happy to elaborate! The solver ensures accuracy in transient combustion simulations through refined mesh settings, robust numerical models like the Species Transport Model, and detailed initial conditions for turbulence, fluid flow, and chemical species. Time-step management and convergence criteria are also suitably selected to capture the fast transient phenomena accurately within the combustion chamber.
