Detonation Propagation in Hydrogen/Methane-Air Mixtures in a Round Tube Filled with Orifice Plates

摘要: 在内径48 mm、长度5 800 mm的含环形障碍物圆管内，进行了氢气-空气及氢气-甲烷-空气的爆轰波传播试验研究，确定了爆燃转爆轰（Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition，DDT）极限。环形障碍物阻塞比为0.56，间距分为两种，即S=D和S=2D，其中S为障碍物间距，D为管道内径。火焰的速度由安装在管道壁面上的光电二极管采集得到。试验测量得到的火焰为准爆轰或阻塞火焰。在S=2D情况下得到的火焰速度均比S=D情况下的火焰速度高，并且靠近DDT极限时速度波动更明显，表明在间距较大的情况下爆轰的重起爆循环周期更长，类似于"弛振爆轰"。对于氢气-空气，障碍物间距为D时在DDT极限处有d/λ>1（富氧条件下d/λ=1.6，贫氧条件下d/λ=1.4），间距为2D时更容易形成爆轰的重起爆，在DDT极限处与准则d/λ≈1一致；对于氢气-甲烷-空气，甲烷的添加使爆轰更不稳定，对于两种间距的障碍物得到的DDT极限均有d/λ≈1（d和λ分别为障碍物内径和爆轰胞格尺寸）。说明障碍物间距对爆轰波传播有显著的影响，即间距的增大更有利于爆轰波的传播。为形成准爆轰，障碍物内径必须至少可以容纳一个爆轰胞格，同时障碍物间距足够大从而引起爆轰的重起爆。Abstract: In this study experiments were carried out in a round tube, 5 800 mm in length and 48 mm in inner-diameter, filled with orifice plates, to investigate the detonation of hydrogen-air mixtures and stoichiometric hydrogen-methane-air mixtures, and the DDT (Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition) limits were determined.The blockage ratio of the orifice plates was 0.56, and the spacing was divided into two, i.e., S=D and S=2D, in which S and D are the obstacle spacing and the tube diameter.The flame velocity was obtained using photodiodes mounted on the tube wall.The results show that the flame regime observed is the quasi-detonation or the choked flame.The flame velocity measured for S=2D is larger than that for S=D, and the velocity fluctuation is more significant.This indicates that the cycle of the detonation failure and re-initiation is longer for S=2D, which is similar to the "galloping detonation".For hydrogen-air mixtures, detonation re-initiation occurs more aptly at S=2D, and the limits correlate well with d/λ≈1.In the case of hydrogen-methane-air mixtures, the DDT limits for S=D and S=2D are both consistent with d/λ≈1, where d and λ are the inner diameter of the orifice plate and the detonation cell size.The results indicate that the obstacle spacing has a significant effect on the propagation of detonation, i.e., detonation propagates more aptly for increased spacing.To generate the quasi-detonation, the opening of the orifice plate has to be large enough to contain at least one cell size while the spacing has to be large enough to form detonation re-initiation.
