Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of injection systems of an air / fuel mixture in a turbomachine combustion chamber. It is more particularly an aerodynamic type injection system provided with means for creating an effervescence of the fuel before it is mixed with the air.
  • the classic process for developing and optimizing a combustion chamber of a turbomachine has the main objective of reconciling the implementation of the operational performances of the chamber (combustion efficiency, stability range, ignition range and relight, life of the combustion chamber, etc.) depending on the mission envisaged for the aircraft on which the turbomachine is mounted while minimizing pollutant emissions (nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons, etc. .). To do this, it is particularly possible to play on the nature and performance of the fuel / air mixture injection system in the combustion chamber, the distribution of the dilution air in the chamber and the dynamics of the air / fuel mixture. fuel in the room.
  • the combustion chamber of a turbomachine typically consists of a system for injecting an air / fuel mixture into a flame tube, a cooling system and a dilution system.
  • the combustion is organized mainly within a first part of the flame tube (called the primary zone) in which it is stabilized by means of zones of recirculation of the air / fuel mixture induced by the flow of air coming from the injection system.
  • the primary zone a first part of the flame tube
  • the dilution zone the chemical activity used is lower and the flow is diluted by means of dilution holes.
  • the atomization time thus represents the time required for the disintegration of the fuel layer by air and the formation of an air / fuel spray. It mainly depends on the performance and technology of the injection system used and aerodynamics in the vicinity of the fuel table.
  • the evaporation time also depends on the injection system used. It is directly a function of the size of the droplets resulting from the disintegration of the fuel layer; the smaller the droplets, the lower the evaporation time.
  • the mixing time corresponds to the time required for the fuel vapors from the evaporation of the droplets to mix with the air. It mainly depends on the level of turbulence inside the combustion chamber and therefore the dynamics of the flow in the primary zone.
  • chemical time it represents the time required for chemical reactions to develop. It depends on the pressures and temperatures at the entry of the hearth and the nature of the fuel used.
  • the injection system used therefore plays a key role in the process of developing a combustion chamber, in particular in the optimization of the characteristic times of atomization and evaporation of the fuel.
  • Aerodynamic injection systems known from the prior art for example that disclosed in EP-1 331 441-A , have many disadvantages.
  • the atomization of the fuel deteriorates sharply, which decreases the stability of the combustion at the risk of seeing the fireplace go out and increases the pollutant emissions type oxides of nitrogen.
