Abstract
Kerosene concentration distributions measured in the combustion chamber of a hotshot wind tunnel in the attached pipeline regime with the input Mach number of 2.89 are reported. Kerosene is injected through 12 jet injectors at an angle to the flow from the wall upstream of a cavity. The measurements are performed in three cross sections. Data on the kerosene concentration distribution in the initial region of the combustion chamber and its dependence on the ratio of the jet and main flow momenta are obtained. It is demonstrated that the absence of intense combustion in a model combustor under these conditions is caused by the fact that the local equivalence ratios are insufficient for ignition.
