Flame-flow interaction during premixed and stratified swirl flame flashback in an annular swirl combustor
… critical to the understanding of boundary layer flashback of swirling flames. In this work, I investigated this interaction during flashback using high-speed luminosity imaging and simultaneous three-dimensional particle image velocimetry. The mean axial velocity through the mixing tube is kept …

Laser Diagnostics Applied to Lean Premixed Swirling Flames - Simultaneous Flow Field and Scalar Measurements
… and nozzle. An investigation of flames close to flashback was carried out in a burner having a variable degree of swirl and equipped with an transparent nozzle. PIV and high-speed video of the flame luminosity were used to study the transition to flashback when the degree of swirl was increased. …

Design and Evaluation of a Lean-Premixed Hydrogen Injector with Tangential Entry in a Sector Combustor
… the flame. A prototype was designed to prevent flashback and promote a high degree of mixing, as well as a test combustor to evaluate the performance of the injector at scaled engine conditions. Numerical simulations were also performed to analyze the flowfield at the engine conditions. …
