Abstract

Effect of different shale gas components on jet diffusion flame were studied using mathematical method in this paper. Changes of OH free radical in jet diffusion flame of two different shale gas components were researched, and the impacts of shale gas composition changes on mass fraction of methane, combustion velocity and temperature fields were also discussed compared with vehicle compression natural gas jet diffusion flames. The results show that, in process of shale gas diffusion combustion, OH free radical mainly in outer flame, higher concentration of OH free radicals produced by the combustion of shale gas with higher mass fraction of methane at the top of the flame; in the region the flame height is in the range of 0~3cm, mass fraction of methane is higher, methane consumption is fastest, and combustion is most intense; compared with shale gas with methane mass fraction of 62.9% and vehicle compression natural gas with methane mass fraction of 87.36%, shale gas with methane mass fraction of 93.5% has the highest Combustion temperature and the fastest combustion speed.
