| Credits/ECTS : |
|
|
| Holder(s) : | Philippe Ngendakumana |
|
| Language : | French language |
|
| Course contents : | 9 chapters are successively covered in that course : combustion thermochemistry, conservation equations for multicomponent reacting systems, explosions of reacting systems, detonation and deflagration waves of premixed gases, premixed and partially premixed laminar flames, gaseous diffusion flames, turbulent flames (interaction turbulence-combustion), sprays combustion, measurement techniques in combustion. |
|
| Course objective : | To provide the students with the basis necessary to handle any problem dealing with combustion of liquid and gaseous fuels : from the formulation of the type of problem to its resolution. The hypotheses generally assumed are highlighted. |
|
| Prerequisites : | Course MECA007-0 "Emploi des combustibles"
Course MECA002-0 "Thermodynamique appliquée et introduction aux machines thermiques" |
|
| Workshops : | Practical exercises are solved with the students (to illustrate the different concepts) and some homeworks are suggested. Three training laboratories are proposed on test benches available in the laboratory and visits of industrial installations are also organised. |
|
| Organization : | The course consists in an oral presentation illustrated by practical examples. It is given during the first semester. |

|
| Assessment : | A personal home work is asked on a topic chosen in a list. Beside a written report, that work has also to be presented orally. The assessment consists in the personal home work (75%) and training laboratories reports (25%). |
