Effects of heat release and flame distortion in the transverse fuel jet
Abstract
Cases of chemically reacting transverse jets in which compressibility and heat release effects are important, such as turbulent diffusion flames deflected by an airstream, are presently addressed by an analytical model examining those dynamics of the vortex pair structure that are observed to dominate the flowfield; attention is given to a structure that causes the combustion process to develop as a bifurcated flame. The results obtained indicate that the reaction's heat release acts to reduce the degree of crossflow penetration by the flame, in addition to reducing the strength of the vortices and the magnitude of the vortex spacing.
