1st International Workshop on Flame Chemistry - in Warsaw of Poland

摘要随着人们对能源安全和气候变化的日益关注，利用高压、低温、热流和成分分层流、均质装药压缩点火和近可燃性极限条件下非平衡等离子体放电燃烧的替代燃料和先进发动机技术的发展，为提高能源效率和减少大气污染物排放提供了潜在的途径。最近在日本发生的核事故进一步强调，燃烧仍然是主要能源来源的时间甚至比先前预测的还要长。新的燃烧技术在极端条件下往往会导致火焰不稳定性增加和燃烧不完全。在极端条件下推进点火和火焰化学的基本认识，以实现点火时间、热释放率、火焰不稳定性和发射的精确控制，也是非常重要的。为了更好地理解这一主题，NSF将在第34届国际研讨会之前，于2012年7月28日至29日在波兰华沙支持第一届火焰化学国际研讨会。本次研讨会的目标是聚集60名燃烧化学、火焰、建模和诊断方面的专家和年轻研究人员，以确定预测高压火焰化学和合作研究的发展途径。研讨会计划有15 - 40分钟的邀请讲座，内容包括高压化学、动力学机制、燃烧诊断、火焰化学、层流和湍流输运；青年研究人员海报展示；以及关于主要挑战、机遇和国际合作的单独小组讨论。研讨会将回顾火焰化学和动力学的最新进展，以确定湍流中预测高压火焰化学的发展途径，并建立国际合作研究关系。此外，它还将为年轻的研究人员提供与专家互动的机会。该研讨会讨论了新燃料、强湍流和高压燃烧中的关键问题。这是第一个这样的车间。本次研讨会将讨论高压火焰化学的几个挑战，并将火焰化学的重大挑战主题向燃烧研究界提出重点建议。它还将在研究和教育方面建立合作关系。本次研讨会有望激活高压火焰化学领域的国际合作，加速研究人员之间的知识转移，并为培养下一代燃烧领域的领导者提供良好的机会。详细信息可在以下网站查阅：http://engine.princeton.edu/1st-flamechemistry-workshop/The_1st_Flame_Chemistry_Workshop-draft.pdf

ABSTRACTWith increasing concerns of energy security and climate change, development of alternative fuels and advanced engine technologies using high pressure, low temperature, thermal and compositional stratified flow, homogeneous charge compression ignition, and non-equilibrium plasma discharge combustion at near flammability limit conditions provide potential approaches to increasing energy efficiency and reducing air pollutant emissions. The recent nuclear accident in Japan further emphasizes that combustion will remain a major energy source for even longer than previously forecast. New combustion technologies at extreme conditions often lead to increased flame instability and incomplete combustion. It is also of great importance to advance fundamental understanding of ignition and flame chemistry at extreme conditions to achieve accurate control of ignition timing, heat release rate, flame instability as well as emission.To better understand this subject, NSF will support the 1st International Workshop on Flame Chemistry from July 28 to 29, 2012 in Warsaw of Poland before the 34th International Symposium. The goal of this workshop is to assemble 60 experts and young researchers in combustion chemistry, flames, modeling, and diagnostics to identify the pathways for the development of predictive high pressure flame chemistry and collaborative research. The workshop plans to have 15 to 40-minutes invited lectures on high pressure chemistry, kinetic mechanism, combustion diagnostics, flame chemistry, and laminar and turbulent transport; young researchers poster presentations; and separate panel discussions on key challenges, opportunities, and international collaborations. The workshop will review the recent progresses in flame chemistry and dynamics, to identify the pathways for the development of predictive high-pressure flame chemistry in turbulent flows, and to establish an international collaborative research relationship. In addition it will provide opportunities for young researchers to interact with experts. The workshop addresses the key problems in combustion with new fuels, strong turbulence, and high pressure. It is the first workshop of this kind. Several challenges in high pressure flame chemistry will be addressed and this workshop will make focused recommendations of the grand challenge topics in flame chemistry to combustion research community. It will also formulate collaborative relationships in research and education. This workshop is expected to activate international collaboration in high pressure flame chemistry, accelerate the knowledge transfer between researchers, and provide a good opportunity to nurse the next generation leaders in combustion.
