Design by Large-Eddy Simulations of a Rich Burn – Quick Mix – Lean Burn Lab-Scale Combustion Chamber Operating in High-Pressure Conditions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Rich burn-Quick mix-Lean burn (RQL) concept is a promising staged combustion technology that ensures flame stability at all operating conditions and significantly reduces the pollutants concentration at the outlet of a combustion chamber. The current paper aims to detail the design of an optimized RQL lab-scale combustion module equipped with large optical accesses and a new-generation Injection System from the French engine manufacturer Safran Helicopter Engines. It is intended to study soot oxidation and NOx reduction processes under realistic high-pressure conditions up to 14 bar by simultaneously investigating the Rich, Quick-mix and Lean regions by laser-based diagnostics. The design of this module is first ensured by performing Large-Eddy Simulations of the reactive flow produced by a kerosene-vapor/air mixture with the AVBP solver. Various geometric configurations of this module were tested at the nominal regime to gradually improve its performance while seeking a suitable solution optimizing flow, mechanical and thermal constraints. The main versions are first presented to show the progress made to well separate the three regions of the RQL combustor while preserving an ability to perform a detailed optical investigation. A reactive two-phase flow LES with liquid fuel kerosene is finally performed to validate the adopted design of the RQL module.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
