Combined isochoric and isobaric acquisition methodology for accurate flame speed measurements from ambient to high pressures and temperatures

Résumé

The present paper addresses measurement techniques of the most important fundamental property of a combustible mixture, the laminar flame speed. The accurate determination of this parameter has been investigated carefully using two different approaches: the constant pressure method based on the flame front trajectory obtained by means of a Schlieren optical technique, and the constant volume method based only on the pressure-time history recorded during the combustion process. Methane/air flames are selected, because they are relevant for many technical applications and believed to be well understood. Measurements were performed using two high-pressure, high-temperature constant volume vessels at RWTH and ICARE. First, uncertainties stemming from experiments are quantified, and the different sources of errors are identified. Second, the assumption that the unburned gas is compressed isentropically due to the burned gas expansion is verified experimentally for the first time to the authors’ knowledge. More importantly, it was found that combining the two approaches can provide high-fidelity data w.r.t. stretch, radiative heat loss, and instabilities. The data will be very helpful for mechanism development and combustion modeling. Ideally, both approaches are applied simultaneously in the same vessel to obtain a high confidence level in the measured data. Finally, a methodology is proposed to provide flame speeds over a wide range of pressures and temperatures up to 14 bars and 620 K, close to engine-relevant conditions.
