Datasets for high hydrogen content syngas fuel variability effect on combustion physicochemical properties.

Abstract

The dataset presented in this article is related to the uncertainty quantification of fuel variability effect on high hydrogen content syngas combustion physicochemical properties. The 1D flame data included in this dataset are collected using PREMIX module available in Chemkin-Pro. Inputs to and outputs collected from the PREMIX module are generated and post-processed using UQTk-3.0.4, an open-access uncertainty quantification (UQ) toolkit developed at Sandia National Laboratories. The 1D flame data here refers to the calculation of flame speed, flame temperature, NO emission, etc. using three detailed chemical mechanisms: the GRI-Mech 3.0, the San Diego, and the NUI Galway Mechanism. The main analysis performed using UQTk-3.0.4 focuses on obtaining main and joint sensitivity effects (Sobol Indices) of uniformly distributed fuel uncertainty on 1D premixed physicochemical property. Other parameters such as the resulted probability density function or fluctuation of these properties are also explored. This new and original dataset is suitable for further analyzing fuel variability effect on other significant flame controlling parameters such as Karlovitz number, flame thickness, etc. in the discipline of turbulent combustion simulation.
