Abstract

Ammonia as an alternative fuel has raised more and more attention in recent years. To utilize ammonia co-firing with methane as potential fuel for power generation, studies need to be conducted for further industrial implementation. In this paper, the ignition delay time characteristics of ammonia as a fuel is studied. Different factors that affect the ignition delay time are investigated. Numerical simulations are carried out using detailed chemical kinetics mechanism. The influence of ammonia cracking rate, ammonia substitution rate and equivalence ratio on the ignition delay time are studied on methane/ammonia mixed fuel under wide range of conditions. The results can provide fundamental data for methane/ammonia combustions utilization.
