Investigation of the control of wakes behind bluff flame-holders
Abstract
The effects of simple controlling on wakes of bluff bodies are investigated. The flow stability of wakes of a bluff body with a plate inserted in the wake is observed using flow visualization. A plate is installed in the V-shaped bluff to form a flame-holder whose flow resistance characteristics and flame stability are experimentally studied. The results are presented and discussed.
