A resonant response of self-pulsating spray-flame submitted to acoustic wave

Résumé

Recently, experiments and theoretical investigations have shown that spray flame can exhibit oscillatory regimes for standard set of parameters. Theoretical and numerical investigations on flame propagation in two-phase premixtures have put forward an intrinsic (and robust) mechanism based on the interaction between the locus where droplets vaporize and the reaction zone. This mechanism invokes neither droplet inertia (very small droplets are studied) nor differential diffusive effects (pulsations take place for unity Lewis number, too). Self-oscillations of spray-flame occur as in a supercritical Hopf bifurcation, controlled by Zeldovich number (Ze, the reduced activation energy), the onset threshold being on the order of (Ze)c ≈ 10. The issue addressed in this contribution is whether acoustic wave and self-pulsating spray-flame can interact. This study was carried out in the open-loop context: a spray-flame was submitted to small amplitude fluctuations of pressure; the gain toward acoustics was found as depending on Zeldovich number because energy transfer is found magnified in the case of a close-frequency fit between acoustic resonator and natural spray-flame oscillations. Moreover, energy transfer is found as of resonant type.
