Chemical Explosive Mode Analysis for Local Reignition Scenarios in H-2/N-2 Turbulent Diffusion Flames
Local reignition scenarios in H-2/N-2 turbulent diffusion flames are investigated using a one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model and chemical explosive mode analysis (CEMA). Through analogy with the flame fronts in homogeneous ignition and laminar premixed flames, four reignition scenarios are distinguished and analyzed by CEMA. Results show that the reignition scenario via premixed flame propagation corresponds to a high-temperature explosion index and the reignition process is segmentally dominated by the reactions related to the consumption and production of the hydrogen radical. While reignition mode through an independent flamelet corresponds to a high radical explosion index, the whole reignition process is dominated by the production reaction of the hydrogen radical. When these two reignition processes are terminated by turbulent eddies, a hybrid reignition process or reignition scenario through turbulent flame folding may occur, and the turbulent folding mode corresponds to a high dissipation rate and obvious temperature jump near the end of the reignition process. In addition, statistical analysis shows that the premixed flame propagation mode is more effective to ignite the fluid parcel with a low temperature and the reignition scenario via an independent flamelet is a quicker process.
