Study experimental of flame-spread rate and spread limit distance of bio-solar droplets in microgravity combustion

Abstract

The most important issues in spray combustion science are how to understand the mechanism of the combustion of liquid fuel spray, especially in the flame-spread phenomenon. In spray combustion, combustion is the existence of the group is very important in order to obtain the stable combustion. Therefore, the flame spread among fuel droplets affects the occurrence of stable combustion in the spray combustion engine. This study was focused on phenomenon on diesel combustion engines. This research was conducted to study the behavior of flame spread rate of flame spread and limit the distance of bio-diesel liquid droplets. This research method was used experimental research. Microgravity condition was Obtained through the free fall tower with the height of the tower used is 6 m. Observed droplets suspended was placed on SiC fibers with different distance and droplet size 1 mm. This study observed Also the influence of the flame propagation direction of the burning droplet to the next burning droplets that lies in the direction and perpendicular to the direction of the flame propagation. The results showed that the bio-diesel fuel droplet Igniter (I) could burn next droplet (A)at a distance (S/d0) = 8.

Flame-spread behavior of biodiesel (B20) in a microgravity environment

“…A diesel engine is an internal combustion (IC) engine, in which fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber in the form of liquid droplets. Preliminary studies on the evaporation rate and a single droplet of biodiesel B20 were carried out by Fitriana et al (2018aFitriana et al ( ), (2018b but have not yet reached the combustion behavior of Biodiesel B20 droplets.…”
