Experimental and Numerical Research on Laminar Burning Characteristics of Premixed Dimethyl Carbonate / Air Flames
Experiment was conducted in a constant volume combustion chamber by high-speed schlieren photograph system. The unstretched laminar burning velocity
Markstein length and cellular critical radius of dimethyl carbonate(DMC)were obtained under different conditions of temperatures
pressures and equivalence ratios. Flame instabilities was also analyzed. The results show that the unstretched laminar burning velocity increases firstly then decreases with the increasing equivalence ratio and gets the peak at the equivalence ratio of 1.1; it also increases with the increasing initial temperatures and decreases with the increase of initial pressures. The Markstein length and cellular critical radius decrease with the increasing equivalence ratio and pressures to indicate that flame instabilities are enhanced with the increasing equivalence ratio and pressures
and the critical Peclet number decreases with the increasing equivalence ratio. The numerical simulation by Glaude mechanism and Chemkin program reveals that the mechanism is unable to predict the unstretched laminar burning velocity very well.
