Challenge on Combustion

AIM :- To study the Combustion Simulation and the effect of the addition of water content on the formation of NOx and soot.

OBJECTIVES :-

  • Types of combustion simulations in FLUENT
  • Perform a combustion simulation on the combustor model and write report on results.

PART-1 :-

Perform a combustion simulation on the combustor model and plot the variation of the mass fraction of the mass fraction of the different species in the simulation using line probes at different locations of the combustor as shown in figure. We need to plot for CO2, H2O, CH4, N2, O2, NOx emission and soot formation.

PART-2 :-

As we must have observed from the above simulation, the NOx and soot is getting formed at the outlet of the combustor. Such formation has harmful effects on the enviornment and humans. The stringent government norms also demand the least formation of NOx and soot and to satisfy those requirments, you need to check the effects of adding the water in the fuel.

In this part, we need to add the water content in the fuel from 5% to 30% by mole and observe the effect of it on the results. It is necessary to provide line plots and contours to prove your claim.

# Types of combustion simulations in FLUENT :-

Models :-

Non-premixed combustion :-

In non premixed combustion, fuel and oxidizer enter the reaction zone in distinct streams. This is in contrast to premixed systems, in which reactantsare mixed at the molecular level before burning. Examples of non-premixed combustion include pulverized coal furnaces, diesel, internal combustion engines and pool fires. It enable the calculation of turbulent reacting flow. This is available only for turbulent flows using the pressure based solver.

Premixed combustion :-

In premixed combustion, fuel and oxidizer are mixed at the molecular level prior to ignition. Combustion occurs as a flame front propogating into the unburnt reactants. Example of premixed combustion incude aspirated internal combustion engines, lean premixed gas turbine combustors, and gas leak explosions. This is available only for turbulent flows using the pressure based solver.

The limitations apply to the premixed combustiuon model are -

  1. We must use the pressure based solver. The premixed combustion model is not available with the density based solver.
  2. The premixed combustion model is valid only for turbulent, subsonic flows. These types of flames are called deflagrations. Explosions also called detonations, where the combustible mixture is ignited by the heat behind a shock wave, can be modeled with the finite rate model using the density based solver.
  3. The premixed combustion model cannot be used in conjunction with the pollutent (i.e. soot and NOx) models. However, a perfectly premixed system can be model with the partially premixed model, which can be used with the pollutant models.
  4. You can not use the premixed combustion model to simulate reacting discrete phase particles, because these would result in a partially premixed system. Only inert particles can be used with the premixed combustion model.

Partially premixed combustion :-

This system are premixed flames with non uniform fuel oxidizer mixtures (equivalence ratios). Such flames include premixed jets discharging into a quiescent atmosphere, lean premixed combustors with diffusion pilot flames or cooling air jets, and imperfectly mixed inlets, it enable the partialy premixed turbulent combustion model. This is available only for turbulent flows using the pressre base solver. If you are interested in computing the concentrations of individual species in the domain, you can use the partially premixed model.

Limitations :-

  • The underlying theory, assumption and limitations of the non premixed and premixed model apply directly to the partially premixe model. In particular, the single mixture fraction approach is limited to two inlet streams, which may be pure fuel, pure oxidizer. The two mixture fraction model extends the number of inlet streams to three, but incurs a majar computational overhead.
  • The flamelet generated manifold (FGM) model is limited to the C-equation partially premixed model.

Phases :-

Volumetric :-

It is for gas phase reactions, the reaction rate is define on a volumetric basis enables the calculation of reacting flow using the finite rate formulations.

Wall surface :-

For gas phase reaction, the reaction rate is defined on a volumetric basis and the net rate of creation and distruction of chemical species becomes a source term in the species conservation equation. For surface reactions, the rate of adsorption and disorption is governed by both chemical kinetics and diffusion to and from the surface. Wall surface reaction therefore create source and sinks of chemical species in the gas phase, as well as on the reacting surface enable the calculation of wall surface reactions. This will appear only if volumetric is enabled.

Electrochemicals :-

An electro chemical charge transfer reaction is a chemical reaction between neutral species, charged ions and electrons, phenomenon is associated with electro chemically include batteries, fuel cells, corrosion and electro deposition. Charge transfer reaction occurs at phase interfaces between electrodes (i.e. anode or cathod) and an electrolyte. This interface is reffered to as Faradeic surface. The electrochemical reaction model is only implimented in the framework of single phase flow. Enables the calculations of electro chemical reactions. This appear only if Volumetric is enabled.

Below I explain both part in details by taking respected cases to prove and discuss more detail by giving examples and plots. For providing details I reffer respected research paper.

PART-1 :- In this part I adopted the following steps are-

  1. As we have CAD model, and that is in 3D, if we study of that then we required lot of time and lot of steps with accuracy, but for avoding this I created 3D model to 2D model, because the 3D model is homogeneous and due to this if we study any part then by integrating we get whole geometry.
  2. For converting 3D model to 2D model I put first plane then I got half geometry and then also I doing same process for another half geometry, Finally I got quarter geometry which is required geometry and then I share this same topology to the meshing.
  3. In meshing I taken name of each side by respected naming and then I enable the proximity inside the sizing and consider element size equal to 1mm for better results and share to the setup.
  4. In setup first off all I checking solution, then I enable the energy equation, then I use K-epsilon setup, then I enable the specis, NOx and soot model, create temperature, pressure and velocity contours as well as mass flow rate and total heat transfer rate plots, then I created boundary conditions, and create animation for temperatur contours for front view and run it upto 2500 iterations.
  5. Finally in results I plotted contours, rendering ...etc.

Following are the detailing of the above procedures as-

# Perform a combustion simulation on the combustor model :-

Geometry :-

3D model of the combustor is provided for the simulation. In this cylinder, methane and air are mixed and combusted. Volume of air compared to fuel is very high. Also there have small gap between the two cylinders is the injection area.

\"\"

Since, running the simulation for entire 3D geometry requires lot of time and powerful computer which is expensive. 3D model is transformed into a 2D model which is efficient and accurate to working and results.

\"\"

Meshing :-

Meshing element size = 1mm

Total number of elements =67342

Total number of nodes = 136652

Base mesh is 1mm. In sizing, capture curvature and proximity are turned on. All traingle method is used, since default setting is quadrilaterals. A descent finer mesh is developed with the above settings.

\"\"

CASE-setup :-

Solver :-steady-state, pressure based, absolute and axisymmetry.

Viscous model :- K-epsilon, standerd, standard wall treatment.

Zones :- air inlet velocity inlet = 0.5 m/s,

species for O2 = 0.23

Fuel inlet velocity inlet = 80 m/s,

specied for CH4 = 1

Since we are simulating the combustion we have to turn on the turbulence model to make the species and combustion related model to work. Models that are selected in the species are as are given pictures also. The eddy dessipation model, based on the work Magnussen and Hjertager, is a turbulent chemistry reaction model. Most fuels are fast burning and the overall rate of reaction is controlled by turbulence mixing. In this model, the chemical reaction is governed by large eddy mixing time scale. Combustion initiates whenever there is turbulence present in the flow. It does not need an ignition source to initiate the combustion.

This is the value for methane air and \'Y\' value for all three lines.

60. Animation file :-

PART-2 :-

Fro above results we can see that all poisonus gas are collected at outlet, that are very dengerous and poissonus because that are pure due to no mixture of any extra quantity like water, but due to government norms we want to decrease this poissoning quantity and hence we need to add some water content in fuel in small ratio from 5% to 30%.

I considering total three cases here by varying water ratio in the fuel, so that decrease the purety of poissoning gasses. Below are the total explaination with plot I proove it.

CASE-1 :-

1. 10% water added in fuel inlet :-

\"\"

For maintaining mass fraction equal to unity I use methane air as 0.9 and water quantity is 0.1.

RESULTS :-

From above all three cases we can say that if water quantity is added into the fuel then the rate of poissonus gases decreases at specific range. Upto specific quantity of water mixture in fuel poissonus gasses are decreases at great range. Also plotted line and contour to proven decreases the quantity of poisonus gasses.

Water quantity decrease down the concentration of poissinus gasses, the mixture of water and air are beneficial only when they are mixed in exact ratios. The density of water is more than the poissonus gasses and hence, it not be fly in atmosphere as easy as possible. Also I calculated mass flow rate and total heat transfer rate values for each cases.

CONCLUSIONS :-

From above explainations and plotting I can conclude that-

  1. Combustion done without the fuel source using the eddy dissipation model. This model uses turbulence model to create combustion.
  2. When there is enough turbulence mixing of fuel and air, eddy dissipation model consider it as reaction and creates combustion depending on the amount of mixture present in that cell.
  3. Temperature, CO2 and H2O has similar kind of contour, which tells us that this species mass fraction depends on the effective combustion.
  4. NOx is present in a very low mass fraction which is quite neglegible.
  5. NOx concentration generated in combustion systems are generally low. As a result, NOx chemistry has negligible influence on the predicted flow field, temperature and major combustion product concentrations. It follows that the most efficient way to use the NOx model is as a post processor to the main combustion calculations.

In this way I proved that how water ratio in fuel decreases the hazardousness and conclude that which factor are depends and get disturbance in that. So I completed this challenge successfully.
