formation characteristics of ammonia-hydrogen swirl premixed flames under acoustic excitation
hydroxyl radical plannar laser induced fluorescence (OH-PLIF) imaging technology was used to analyze the flame structure at the sound frequency of 180 Hz an
d the pressure amplitude of 200 Pa. Flame structure and surface density distribution were obtained through image processing techniques. The effects of combustion and acoustic field pulsation coupling on NO
x
emissions under different equivalence ratios (
Φ
) and hydrogen blending ratios (
Z
f
) were explored. Results show that the acoustic field can suppress the formation of NO
x
in ammonia-hydrogen swirl premixed flames to some extent
with the reduction effect influenced by
Φ
and
Z
f
. The acoustic field mainly affects the combustion flow field by creating periodic pulsating flows around the flame
thus demonstrating a better NO
x
reduction effect in combustion fields dominated by air momentum at low equivalence ratios (
Φ
≤0.8). In combustion fields dominated by fuel chemical reactions at high equivalence ratios (
Φ
>0.8)
the effect on NO
x
emissions is less significant. Under the influence of the acoustic field
the surface density of lean flames increases
and the average OH intensity decreases
as the acoustic field enhances flame combustion intensity
accelerates the combustion rate
and improves heat and mass transfer with the surrounding flow field. When the hydrogen blending ratio is low (0.20≤
Z
f
<
0.30)
the acoustic field causes the flame area to shrink
leading to a relatively higher NO
x
reduction. When the hydrogen blending ratio is high (0.30≤
Z
f
≤0.35)
the compressive effect on the flame area weakens
and the NO
x
reduction effect is slightly reduced.
