SUMMARY:Investigation of Methanol Combustion in an Opposed Jet Combustor
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Ariel Sharon\n Faculty:Department of Aerospace Enginee

 tps://technion.zoom.us/j/99852933549\n Zoom: \n Abstract: \n Details: \n T
 ransfer to sustainable energy is the requirement of the present hour &amp\
 ; there has been a considerable push towards renewable non-combustion-base
 d energy generation. Nevertheless\, it is estimated that conventional comb
 ustion of hydrocarbons will still be the most significant energy source fo
 r the next decades. Considering this\, it is of paramount importance to op
 timize combustion-based energy generation. One possible area of minimizing
  the environmental impact is by switching to biofuels\, and one such promi
 sing biofuel is Methanol (CH3OH).\nTo advocate this transfer towards metha
 nol\, fundamental knowledge of its emission characteristics is required\, 
 especially trace pollutants like Formaldehyde (CH2O). In combustion engine
 ering\, Chemical Kinetics Models are a useful tool to predict these combus
 tion behaviors. These models are only validated against a limited set of e
 xperimental measurements. Considering this\, it is important to validate t
 he existing chemical mechanisms for a broader set of operational range.\nT
 his research provides for detailed validation of the existing Methanol che
 mical kinetic mechanism by correlating simulation &amp\; experimental data
  from Methanol oxidation in an Opposed Jet Combustor (OJC). The work inclu
 des experimental Chemiluminescence &amp\; temperature measurement for both
  atomized &amp\; vaporized Methanol combustion\, which are then correlated
  against Chemkin OPPDIF simulations.\nAdditionally\, the presentation will
  showcase simulation results focused on identifying methods of minimizing 
 Formaldehyde (CH2O) emission. These parametric simulations explores the no
 vel method of controlling CH2O emission by using Water mixed Methanol.\nZo
