摘要
Local heat release rate is one of the most concerned parameters in the combustion processes. However, this parameter is hard to be measured directly in the experiments. Therefore local heat release rate indicators have been sought and evaluated, and many works focus on the study in the gaseous laminar or turbulent premixed flames. The motivation of this work is to explore and validate heat release rate indicators for auto-igniting n-heptane droplets. To this end, direct numerical simulation (DNS) is performed with a detailed chemical reacting mechanism. Results show that the product of mass fractions of OH and CH2O is a proper indicator when the local auto-ignition prevails and the temperature rises quickly. The elementary reactions involved are analyzed, which shed light on the construction and performance of heat release rate indicators. Some new definitions of the indicators are proposed and evaluated. The proportional relationship between the indicator and the actual local heat release rate is determined. The heat release associated with different combustion regimes are distinguished, which reveals the dominant role of premixed flames in the droplets auto-ignition processes.
