Ignition Analysis in Supersonic Turbulent Mixing Layer
Numerical study of two dimensional supersonic
hydrogen-air mixing layer is performed to investigate the effect of
turbulence and chemical additive on ignition distance. Chemical
reaction is treated using detail kinetics. Advection upstream splitting
method is used to calculate the fluxes and one equation turbulence
model is chosen here to simulate the considered problem. Hydrogen
peroxide is used as an additive and the results show that inflow
turbulence and chemical additive may drastically decrease the
ignition delay in supersonic combustion.
