Liquid metal combustion has been used as the primary | |
energy source for underwater vehicle propulsion because | |
of its energetic and closed-cycle characteristics. This | |
can be achieved by injecting gaseous oxidizer (SF6) in a | |
molten metal (Li) bath. The present paper describes a new | |
multi-fluid (MF) combustion model for multiphase | |
submerged diffusion flames. Each fluid has separate | |
transport equations which are linked to other fluids' | |
transport equations by additional source terms. The | |
present MF model results for a submerged Li(l)-SF6(g) | |
flame gave a much longer plume length compared to the | |
corresponding locally-homogeneous flow (LHF) model | |
results and is in good agreement with the experimentally | |
measured plume length. | |
