RM不稳定过程中预混火焰界面演化及混合区增长预测

INTERFACE EVOLUTIONS AND GROWTH PREDICTIONS OF MIXING ZONE ON PREMIXED FLAME INTERFACE DURING RM INSTABILITY

  • 摘要: 预混火焰界面的RM (Richtmyer-Meshkov)不稳定导致的界面混合区增长过程在自然界和工程实践中十分常见,但化学反应对其增长的影响机理仍不明确,反应性界面混合区增长速率的预测也未见报道, 因此,开展RM不稳定过程中火焰界面演化和混合区预测的研究十分必要.本文采用带单步化学反应的Navier-Stokes方程和高精度数值格式,研究了正弦形预混火焰界面在平面入射激波及其反射激波作用下的RM不稳定过程.结果表明, 在入射激波作用后的阶段,除RM不稳定本身导致的界面演化为"钉-帽"和"泡"形结构外,化学反应一方面以预混火焰传播的方式促进了界面中"泡"结构的增长,另一方面通过与涡结构的复杂相互作用促进了"钉-帽"结构的增长.化学反应活性越强, 火焰界面的"泡" 结构和"钉-帽"结构的增长越快.在第一次反射激波作用后的阶段,化学反应以相同的火焰传播方式对"泡"和"钉-帽"结构产生影响, 两者效应相抵,因而导致反射激波作用后的阶段中界面混合区增长不受化学反应活性的影响.根据以上分析,分别针对入射激波和第一次反射激波作用后的火焰界面混合区增长速率提出了相应的预测模型,为探索反应性RM不稳定过程的理论预测方法提供了有益参考.

     

    Abstract: Growth of mixing zone on premixed flame interface induced by Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instability occurs frequently in natural phenomena and in engineering applications. The effect of chemical reaction on the growth mechanism of mixing zone on the interface still remains unknown, and the predictions on growth rate of mixing zone on reactive interface were seldom reported. Therefore, it is necessary to study the interface evolutions and the predictions of mixing zone on the premixed flame interface during the RM instability. The present study adopted the Navier-Stokes equations with a single-step reaction and the computational scheme with high resolutions to numerically research the RM instability of flame interface with sinusoidal pattern, induced by a planar incident shock wave and its reflected shock wave. The results in present study show that during the stage after the passage of incident shock wave, besides the RM instability mechanism which leads to the "spike-cap" and "bubble" structures of the interface, the chemical reaction not only promotes the "bubble" structure growth in the form the premixed flame propagation, but also gives rise to the growth of "spike-cap" structure through the interaction with vortices structure. The more reactive the premixed gases, the rapider the growth for both "spike-cap" and "bubble" structures. The results also show that during the stage after the passage of first reflected shock wave, the chemical reaction has the same effects on the developments of both "spike-cap" and "bubble" structures in the mode of premixed flame propagation. The counteraction between both effects results in the independence of mixing zone growth on the chemical reaction. Based on above analyses, the predicted models for the stages after passages of incident shock wave and reflected shock wave are proposed, respectively, in order to provide a useful method for predictions of mixing zone growth during the reactive RM instability.
