Heat Transfer and Exergy Analysis of Methane-Air Flame Impinging on Plane Surfaces
Abstract: Exergy and heat flow have been numerically investigated for flame impinging on flat circular plates. The maximum work available when the system is brought to thermodynamic equilibrium state with its surrounding is known as the exergy of a system. This state of equilibrium of the system depends on the pressure, temperature, and composition of environment. Efficiency based on exergy is otherwise known as the second-law efficiency which measures the usefulness …
