Description
Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 機械工程學系 === 84 === This research is concerned with the experimental investigations of self-excited oscillations in a combustor with premixed flames stabilizedon a burner surface located at one end of a rectangular duct. These studieswere conducted by using photomultiplier tube for the flame radiation measurements, Laser Doppler Velocimetry(LDV) for the oscillatory velocitymeasurements and pressure transducer for the oscillatory pressure measurements.The obtained data were analyzed by the methods of Rayleigh criterion andacoustic admittance. Results of this study show that self-excited flame oscillations were observed at certain flow velocities and equivalence ratios,which depend on the duct configurations and the burner assemblies. Velocitymeasurements show that flow recirculation occur at downstream of the flame.However, no vortex shedding were observed, indroting that the self-excited flame oscillation is not caused by the hydrodynamic instability. Results of the flame radiation studies indicated that the flame induce higher intensity of pressure oscillation with lager values of the Rayleigh integral, whichfulfills the Rayleigh criterion. In addition, The intensity of pressure oscillation depends on the flow velocities and the equivalence ratios. The admittance studies show that the imaginary part of the cold admittance playsan important role in the self-excited flame oscillation. The necessary condition for the flame exhibiting self-excited oscillation is with positiveimagiray part of the cold admittance. The frequency of the self-excited flameoscillation does not always occur at the frequency where the flame provides the maximum amount energy to the acoustic field. The natural frequencies of the experimental duct are also important in the flame and pressure oscillation.
