Introduction to Combustion《燃烧基础》
上课日期7月21日-26日 新主楼C座102
Professor Guillermo Rein
Department of Mechanical Engineering
Imperial College London, UK
The aim of the course is to provide the foundations of combustion science and an understanding of the technological challenges faced in propulsion, energy generation regarding efficiency, emissions and safety. The course is based on 20 h of lectures and 3 h of tutorials. The course builds on material taught in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer courses at the undergraduate level (prerequisites) to build the basis for an understanding and solving current issues in combustion.
Core Objectives:
· Fundamental principles of combustion science
· Efficiency, emissions and safety in combustion systems.
· Knowledge and skills required to solve engineering problems with fuels and combustion devices.
Topics covered: Fuels, Combustion Thermochemistry, Chemical Kinetics, Ignition, Premixed and Diffusion flames, Turbulent Combustion, Droplet combustion, Particle combustion, Emissions, Engines, Fire Dynamics, Smouldering Combustion.
Mandatory Textbook: McAllister, Chen and Fernandez-Pello, 'Fundamentals of Combustion Processes', Springer, ISBN 978-1-4419-7943-8 (available online as an open access pdf). The textbook provides a channel in youtube where experimental demonstrations are shown.
Recommended Reading: Michael Faraday, 'The Chemical History of a Candle', any edition or version e.g. ISBN 978-0-19-969491-4.

EDUCATION
Ph. D., Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, 1980-1984, Princeton University, Princeton, N.J.
PROFESSIONAL HISTORY
1. Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics, NCKU, 1992-Present
2. Adjunct Professor of Propulsion and Power, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 1994-Present
3. Visiting Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Penn State University,2004-2007 (Summer)
4. Member of Editorial Advisory Board, AIAA Journal of Propulsion and Power, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2000-2003
5. CEO/Chief Advisor, 3R Biotechnologies, Ltd., 2009-Present
Objectives
Characteristic theory will be adopted to highlight the hyperbolicity nature of the convection terms. The concept of wave propagation in fluid will be stressed to let students have a thorough idea of how the flow motion arises and prevails in many different fashions in practical applications.
Topics
Characteristic Theory of Hyperbolic System
1. Classification of second order, two independent variable PDE
2. Elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic types and the characteristic lines
3. Quasi┸linear equations in two independent variables
4. Initial value problem and domain of dependence
5. Riemann invariants
6. Well┸posed initial┸boundary value problems
Mathematical Formulation of Euler Equation System
1. Conservative and non┸conservative formulations
2. Discontinuities and Rankine┸Hugoniot shock relations, entropy condition
3. Jacobian matrices for conservative variables
4. Jacobian matrices for primitive variables
5. Eigenvalues and left and right eigenvectors of Jacobian matrix
6. Transformations between conservative, primitive and characteristic variables
7. Charactersitic variables and eigenvalues for one┸dimensional flow
8. Acoustic, vorticity and entropy waves
9. Shock tube problem
10. Boundary condition specification
11. Characteristic formulation of multi┸dimensional flow
12. Governing equations formulated on moving control volume
Course information
This is a dual (undergraduate/graduate) level course prepared for advanced students who have already taken at least one semester Fluid Dynamics course. Students should be familiar with vector analysis, matrix theory, ordinary differential equations and some preliminary knowledge in partial differential equations.
