    Experimental determination of a mixture composed of Camisea natural gas and CO2 laminar burning velocity
    (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024-11-01)
    The aim of this work is to provide new experimental data on laminar burning velocities for a new synthetic mixture composed of Camisea natural gas and CO2. It was found that the relevant published experimental background data are limited to mixtures composed of methane and CO2; considering the fact that Camisea natural gas is widely used in Peru, this experimental research will serve as a supportive resource for further experimental and industrial implementations in this country, such as the design and modeling of new engines or industrial burners that are designed to be fueled by this mixture. An experimental setup for analyzing three types of flame geometry, which is feasible to implement for a wide range of conditions, was built in PUCP PI0735 laboratory and all the measurements were obtained for a range of mixtures (0%, 21.2%, 28.5%, 38.9%, 50% CO2) and ratios from around 0.55 to 0.95 at atmospheric conditions. The laminar burning velocities results obtained were analyzed in groups based on %CO2. In addition, the experimental margin error was determined by considering all the sources. The following conclusions were reached: (1) The laminar burning velocity decreases with the increase in CO2 percentage in the mixture due to the CO2 decreasing the flame temperature effect. (2) The flat flame type provided the highest value of burning velocity for each group of CO2 percentage in which it appears. (3) The highest obtained laminar burning velocity value was 22.64 ± 0.15 cm/s, for a flat flame with a ratio of 0.72 and 29.98% of CO2, while the lowest obtained value was 6.78 ± 0.15 cm/s for a conical trunk flame with a ratio of 0.59 and 49.83% of CO2. (4) The highest evaluated CO2 percentage was 50.97% for a conical trunk flame with a ratio of 0.69 and a burning velocity value of 11.04.

    Determination of 12 Combustion Products, Flame Temperature and Laminar Burning Velocity of Saudi LPG Using Numerical Methods Coded in a MATLAB Application
    (MDPI, 2023-06-01)
    The characterization of a specific fuel has always been an important point for developing and designing new components or systems with the maximum efficient possible. Studying the laminar burning velocity can lay a necessary prerequisite for the accurate poststudy of the turbulent range and to understand how the combustion process takes place. The study of the combustion products from a specific reaction is a requisite for any system in order to understand the elements that are taken in the process and if it is possible to improve it. In this study, a new open code methodology was developed for the determination of combustion products, flame temperature and laminar burning velocity using numerical methods (Newton–Raphson, Taylor series and Gaussian elimination) in an application codified in MATLAB. The MATLAB application was applied for the study of Saudi LPG setting parameters such as initial temperature, pressure and equivalence ratio that are meaningful because they have a great effect on the results. In addition, simulation in Ansys Chemkin using San Diego and RedSD mechanisms was carried out. The results from the MATLAB application were compared with other experimental research and Ansys Chemkin simulation. These are presented in different plots and it is shown that: (1) For the laminar burning velocity results, the numerical method agrees with the experimental results for ratios (0.6–1.2) by other authors and the simulation in Ansys Chemkin. (2) For the highest studied equivalence ratios (1.3–1.7) the laminar burning velocity results between all the resources have more difference. (3) The combustion products calculated by the MATLAB application agree with those simulated in Ansys Chemkin except N and NO. (4) The MATLAB application gives a maximum value of 40.35 cm/s, that is greater than 35 ± 0.91, the one determined by Bader A. Alfarraj. (5) The flame temperature calculated by the MATLAB application overestimates that simulated in Ansys Chemkin but has the same behavior for all the calculated ratios. (6) The MATLAB application has also been developed for the study and analysis of other fuels.
