Modeling of a Ten-Particle Char Cluster Interactive Combustion

Article Preview

Abstract:

Char-cluster interactive combustion occurs widely in practical combustors. A 3-D mathematical model for char-cluster combustion is established. The combustion and gas-solid drag properties of a ten-particle char cluster are numerically studied. Detailed results regarding velocity vector, mass component, temperature distributions around and inside the cluster are revealed. Gas-solid drag forces acted on each combusting char particle are obtained and comparatively studied.
