Abstract

A novel combustor with a flame holder and preheating channels was developed to investigate the synergistic effect of heat and flow recirculation on combustion characteristics. This paper mainly focuses on the thermal condition of flame holder and combustion chamber wall (CCW) and their interaction on flame stabilization. Based on the distribution characteristics of temperature and flow fields, it can be deduced that the interaction between the flame holder and CCW can further increase the incoming fresh mixture temperature and decrease the height of recirculation zone, which subsequently affect the anchoring locations and temperatures of the flame root and top. To be more specific, the flame holder and CCW synergistically improve the preheating temperature of fresh mixture, making it higher than simple linear superposition. Moreover, the anchoring location of the flame root is mainly determined by the heat exchange of flame holder, but CCW matters more significantly for the flame top. Additionally, the anchoring temperature of the flame root is higher than that of the flame top. This study can help us to gain insights into the effect of conjugate heat exchange on flame stability when the effect of heat recirculation and flow recirculation works synergistically in practical combustors (like aero-engine).
