Abstract
Future aviation concepts should be both CO2-neutral and without other emissions. One approach to reaching both targets is based on sustainably produced synthetic liquid fuels, which may allow very clean, lean premixed prevaporized (LPP) combustion. For that, fuels are needed with much longer ignition delay times and a lower flashback propensity than current jet fuels. We describe an experimental setup to investigate the flashback stability of liquid fuels in a multi-fuel burner. In this work, the measurement procedure and the determination of the experimentally obtained accuracy are in focus with regard to prevaporized and preheated iso-propanol/air flames in an equivalence ratio range of 0.85 to 1.05 involving three preheating levels (573, 673, and 773 K). As the determination of the accurate unburnt gas temperature just ahead of the flame is of strong importance for flashback but not directly possible, a model is implemented to determine it from the measurable quantities. Even with this indirect method, and also regarding the hysteresis of the experimental preheating temperature, it is found that the relevant quantities, namely, measured temperatures, mass flows, and values derived from them, can be determined with accuracy in the range below 1.7%.
