COMPUTATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL-STUDY OF FUEL-OIL BURNING WITH EXCESS-OXIDANT RATIOS SMALLER THAN UNITY

We have proposed a mathematical model of the process in. which fuel oi l drops are simulated by drops of slurry carbon. Combustion and pyroly sis of vapors of the liquid component of a fuel were considered in a d iffusive approximation. Diffusive and kinetic processes were taken int o account upon simulation of the combustion of carbon particles. Compu tational and experimental investigations have revealed a decisive effe ct of the carbon blade formation processes on the completeness of fuel oil burn-up upon its pyrolysis and upon radiation from the carbon bla ck particles being formed. A method of fuel oil burning with a reduced formation, of carbon black was proposed and realized.
