英文摘要: In this study, the effect of CO2 dilution on the thermoacoustic stability of propane-oxyfuel flames is studied in a non-premixed, swirl-stabilized combustor. The results, obtained at a fixed combustor power density (4 MW/m3 bar) and global stoichiometric equivalence ratio (Φ = 1.0), show that the oxy-flame is stable at 0% and low CO2 concentrations in the oxidizer. A self-amplifying coupling between heat release and pressure fluctuations was observed to occur at the CO2 concentration of 45%, which matches the point of flame transition from a jet-like to a V-shaped flame resulting from the formation of inner recirculation zone. The observed frequency for both the pressure and heat release oscillations is 465 Hz and the ensuing thermoacoustic instability is believed to have been resulted from vortexes and flame interactions. Subsequent to the coupling of the oscillations at the CO2 concentration of 45%, their amplitudes grew at 50% to 60% CO2 dilution levels. The maximum amplitude was observed at 60% CO2 concentration after which, as CO2 dilution level increases, the acoustic amplitude and that of its counterpart in the heat release spectrum decreased due to damping (energy dissipation) arising from heat loss and viscous dissipation. An increase in hydrogen concentration in the fuel and a decrease in the combustor power density were observed to lower the acoustic amplitude. Furthermore, a frequency shift is observed with a change in the combustor firing rate, which shows that the mode scales with the flow velocity, and therefore, unlikely to be a natural acoustic mode of the combustor. This study, therefore, reveals thermoacoustic instability in non-premixed oxy-combustion driven by changes in flame dynamics and macrostructures as the CO2 concentration in the oxidizer mixture varies. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
