Clare CollegeGraduate Research Forum Autoignition in Turbulent Flows Department of Engineering Christos Nicolaos Markides
DISCLAIMER • This presentation: • Follows NO RULES • Has NO PARTICULAR FORMAT • Adheres to NO EXISTING (OR NOT) GUIDELINES on how to give good presentation • Simply follows A LOGICAL PROGRESSION FROM ONE POINT TO THE NEXT • So sue me … or lets go … • Apologies to scientists: I have stripped the talk bare of all mathematics (almost)…
STRUCTURE • (Food and drink …) • WHAT? • WHY? • HOW? • (Food and drink …)
WHAT • What is: • Autoignition? • Turbulent? • What field of science does it belong to? • What are the applications?
WHAT ELSE • What do scientists (not really) know? • Premixed Autoignition (i.e. mixing out of the way), and, • Laminar Non-premixed Autoignition are pretty much sorted … • What do scientists not know? • Anything about Turbulent Non-premixed Autoignition
WHY • Why: • Autoignition? • Turbulent? • Why is this important? • Why are there things scientists do not know? • Why are we going to do the things we are going to do?
HOW? • How are we going to get: • Autoignition? • Turbulent? • How is this going to help us understand?
Predicting Turbulent Autoignition is very important because it will help improve pollutant emissions. It is a very complicated phenomenon, difficult to achieve and even more difficult to measure. Very few people know very few things about it (they are lying if they say otherwise). In the Department of Engineering we are leading the way in getting a better idea of how it works, when and where it will happen and what it looks like. REVIEW
