Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mechanism of particulate matter formation from the premixed laminar and turbulent flames was investigated by the experiments and the numerical simulation. Direct and tomograph images showed that soot was generated within the region where the flame temperature might be low due to the thermo-diffusive effects. Such a soot region was reduced by intense turbulence of mixture flow. Chain structure of soot that consists of element particles was observed by an electron microscope. Mass fraction and size distributions of soot were obtained by numerical simulation. Nucleus formation, aggregation, growth in surface and oxidization processes were made clear.
