Abstract:
Computational studies of methane and hydrogen laminar jet inverse diffusion flames have been discussed herein. The flame configurations are modelled using computational tool UNICORN. Flame length, width and adiabatic temperature for methane and hydrogen with increasing oxygen content have been reported in the literature and results of both hydrogen and methane are compared. The salient feature in the combustion phenomenon of these fuels is that the flame length, width and temperature are invariably proportional to oxygen enrichment.
Keywords:
