Abstract

This research was intended to investigate the effect of the geometry and blockage ratio of the flame connector on the combustion characteristics of wood pellets on a wood pellet stove. Combustion characteristics observed in this research included flame visualization, flame temperature, specific fuel consumption, and corrected-specific fuel consumption. Two types of geometry were used as a flame connector, i.e. disk and cone; for each geometry, the blockage ratio was varied at 0,6, 0,7, and 0,8. The blockage ratio was varied by change the number of the circular hole on the flame connector. Combustion in wood pellet stove without flame connector was then used as a comparison. The flame visualization test was applied to find out the color and dimensions of the flame, which was then used to determine the temperature on this flame. The water boiling test method version 4.2.3 was used to determine specific fuel consumption and corrected specific fuel consumption. The combustion chamber of the wood pellet stove has a dimension of 15 cm diameter and 20 cm height. Wood pellet supply used intermittent - continuous feeding system with a mass flow rate of 16 gram/minute. Flame visualization shows that stove with cone flame connector has a larger flame dimension and flame dimension decreases with the increasing of blockage ratio. The highest flame temperature occurred near the outlet of the combustion chamber, the same conditions were observed in all variations experiment.  The application of flame connector involves greater specific fuel consumption due to longer boiling time. However, a correction factor by considering the amount of evaporated water results from corrected specific fuel consumption of wood pellet stove with cone flame connector which is smaller compared to the other type of wood pellet stove.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the different carbon chain lengths and the degree of unsaturation of six fatty acids as the constituent of vegetable oils. The droplet combustion was carried out at an ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. The variation in the carbon chain length and the degree of unsaturation resulted in different physical and chemical properties of the fuel, which affect the droplet combustion characteristics. The increase of the carbon chain length results in longer ignition delay times and shorter burning durations, as well as higher droplet temperatures, burning rate constant, and specific power output. Conversely, an increase in the degree of unsaturation with the presence of double bond results in shorter ignition delay and longer burning duration, as well as higher droplet temperatures, but lower burning rate constant and specific power output. The droplet diameter evolution divides the combustion period into unsteady burning zones and quasi-linear burning zones. The flame dimension of unsaturated fatty acid is higher due to the soot formation at the top of the flame. A bluish flame related to the higher oxygen content in the molecule can be observed in saturated fatty acids. The short-chain saturated fatty acid has a large non-luminous zone because they are rich in oxygen. In contrast, the long-chain saturated fatty acid has a narrow non-luminous zone with high flame radiation.

Abstract

This research intended to investigate the combustion characteristics of methyl oleic – ethanol blend with OH functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-OH) addition. Methyl oleic is an unsaturated fatty acid methyl ester, which is a constituent of various biodiesels. The observed fuel was a mixture of Methyl oleic with 20% vol of ethanol. MWCNT-OH content was varied by 100 ppm, 200 ppm, 300 ppm, 400 ppm, and 500 ppm (wt based). The presence of ethanol in the droplets is intended to promote the microexplosion phenomenon, generating smaller droplets and a shorter burning time. The experimental results show that the MWCNT-OH addition on the droplet of Methyl oleic – ethanol blend decreased the ignition delay and droplet burning time, while the constant burning rate and droplet temperature (and flame temperature) were increased. Reducing ignition delay time due to the higher thermal conductivity of nanofluid droplets results in more effective heat absorption from the environment and better heat transport inside the droplet. Hence, droplet vaporization, flammable mixture formation and ignition occur in a shorter time. Furthermore, this condition encourages a higher burning rate and a lower droplet burning time. The higher droplet and flame temperatures are related to the higher heating value of the methyl oleic – ethanol – MWCNT-OH mixture and higher droplet burning rate, which results in a higher heat release rate.
