Background Technology
[0002] The fuel combustion process can be described by a large number of elementary reactions, which together determine the chemical kinetics of the fuel during ignition, flame propagation, and complete combustion. For multi-component fuels such as methanol, diesel, and biodiesel, the detailed combustion mechanism often involves thousands of chemical components and tens of thousands of reaction pathways. Although such detailed mechanisms can accurately reflect the combustion behavior of fuels, their application in three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations results in extremely large computational loads, leading to excessively long simulation times, difficulty in convergence, and high computational resource requirements.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a simplified reaction mechanism construction method for mixed fuels that can balance computational efficiency and simulation accuracy and characterize the interaction of different fuel components, so as to achieve a realistic reproduction of the mixed fuel combustion process in multidimensional numerical simulation.

[0023] As described in the background section, the reaction mechanism of mixed fuels in the prior art is large in scale and has high computational complexity, making it difficult to achieve efficient simplification while ensuring the accuracy of combustion characteristics. In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of this application provide a method for simplifying the reaction mechanism of mixed fuels, a device for simplifying the reaction mechanism of mixed fuels, a computer-readable storage medium, and a system for simplifying the reaction mechanism of mixed fuels.
[0024] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0025] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a simplified method for implementing the reaction mechanism of mixed fuels according to embodiments of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0026] Step S101: Determine the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each component fuel in the mixed fuel. The core mechanism characterizes the combustion reaction process of the component fuel with a carbon atom number less than or equal to a preset number. The global sub-mechanism characterizes the combustion reaction process of the component fuel with a carbon atom number greater than the preset number.
[0027] Specifically, blended fuels consist of multiple single fuels, each involving hundreds or thousands of chemical reactions during combustion. To reduce computational complexity, the reaction mechanisms of each fuel are first broken down.
[0028] Step S102: Determine the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each elementary reaction in the combustion reaction process of the mixed fuel based on the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each of the above-mentioned component fuels. The comprehensive sensitivity coefficient characterizes the degree of influence of each of the above-mentioned elementary reactions on the combustion reaction process of the mixed fuel.
[0029] Step S103: Determine the key reactions among the above-mentioned elementary reactions based on the comprehensive sensitivity coefficients, and determine the combustion conditions corresponding to the above-mentioned key reactions.
[0030] Specifically, the aforementioned key reactions are elementary reactions that have a significant impact on the overall combustion process during the combustion of mixed fuels.
[0031] Step S104: Based on the above-mentioned key reactions and the above-mentioned combustion conditions corresponding to each of the above-mentioned key reactions, determine the first simplified reaction mechanism of the above-mentioned mixed fuel using the hybrid frog-leap algorithm.
[0032] Through the above embodiments, the reaction mechanisms of each component fuel in the blend are layered. Reactions with fewer carbon atoms and shorter reaction chains are classified as core mechanisms, responsible for describing the detailed reaction process of small molecules, involving the high-temperature stages of combustion, such as the generation of free radicals and chain reactions. Mechanisms with more carbon atoms and more complex reaction pathways are classified as global sub-mechanisms, mainly describing the gradual oxidation and decomposition of fuel macromolecules into smaller molecules and a small number of free radicals. This allows for the removal of reaction channels with weak correlation to the overall combustion law during the modeling stage, reducing the scale of the mechanisms. Through comprehensive sensitivity analysis, key reactions are identified. After obtaining the core and global mechanisms of each component fuel, a comprehensive sensitivity coefficient analysis method is used to determine the key reactions that truly determine the combustion characteristics of the blended fuel, while eliminating reactions with minimal impact on combustion behavior. This simplifies the mechanisms to be both lightweight and maintains the authenticity of combustion characteristics, ensuring both the physical accuracy of the simulation and significantly improving computational efficiency and model stability. This solves the problem in existing technologies where the reaction mechanisms of blended fuels are large in scale and computationally complex, making it difficult to achieve efficient simplification while maintaining the accuracy of combustion characteristics.
[0033] In one alternative approach, determining the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each elementary reaction in the combustion reaction process of the mixed fuel based on the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each of the aforementioned component fuels includes: determining a first sensitivity of each elementary reaction included in the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each of the aforementioned component fuels to IDT (Ignition Delay Time), wherein the first sensitivity characterizes the degree of influence of each elementary reaction on the IDT; determining a second sensitivity of each elementary reaction included in the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each of the aforementioned component fuels to the component concentration obtained by JSR (Jet-Stirred Reactor), wherein the second sensitivity characterizes the degree of influence of each elementary reaction on the JSR result; and determining the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each elementary reaction of the mixed fuel based on the first sensitivity and the second sensitivity.
[0034] In the above embodiments, the reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel is decomposed into a core mechanism and a global sub-mechanism, and the sensitivity of each elementary reaction to the ignition delay time (IDT) and jet stirred reactor (JSR) results is calculated, thereby quantifying the impact of each elementary reaction on the combustion process. The core mechanism focuses on describing the detailed combustion process of small molecules, playing a key role in ignition and flame propagation; the global sub-mechanism focuses on the oxidative cracking of fuel macromolecules, forming smaller free radicals and unsaturated hydrocarbons, providing a basis for subsequent oxidation reactions. By determining the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient based on the first and second sensitivities, the combined effect of each elementary reaction on the combustion characteristics of the mixed fuel can be comprehensively evaluated, achieving a two-dimensional quantitative analysis of combustion behavior. This allows for the identification of the reactions with the greatest impact on combustion performance and provides a unified quantitative basis for subsequent reaction screening and rate parameter optimization, thus laying the foundation for mechanism simplification while maintaining the accuracy of combustion characteristics.
[0035] In another alternative approach, determining the first sensitivity of each of the aforementioned elementary reactions, including those in the core mechanism and global sub-mechanism of each of the aforementioned component fuels, to IDT includes: obtaining each of the aforementioned elementary reactions' preset rate constants, and determining multiple first products of each of the aforementioned elementary reactions' preset rate constants with a first preset constant; determining multiple second products of each of the aforementioned elementary reactions' preset rate constants with a second preset constant; determining multiple first quotients of each of the aforementioned first products and each of the aforementioned second products corresponding to each of the aforementioned elementary reactions, and determining a first logarithmic value of each of the aforementioned first quotients; determining a second quotient of the aforementioned first preset constants with the aforementioned second preset constants, and determining a second logarithmic value of the aforementioned second quotients; and determining the first sensitivity as a third quotient of the aforementioned first logarithmic value and the aforementioned second logarithmic value.
[0036] In the above embodiments, by amplifying and reducing the reaction rate constants by a certain factor, the trend of ignition delay time variation under different rate conditions is obtained. The first sensitivity is calculated by the logarithmic ratio of the two values, thus reflecting the strength of the reaction's influence on the combustion initiation stage. This allows for a direct observation of which reactions dominate fuel ignition behavior and which have a smaller impact, thereby achieving accurate identification of key reactions in the mechanism. This process effectively reduces interference from irrelevant or low-sensitivity reactions, making subsequent mechanism simplification more targeted and scientific, and improving the accuracy and computational efficiency of combustion simulation.
[0037] Specifically, according to Determine the first sensitivity, where T ij Let τ be the first sensitivity of the i-th elementary reaction to the IDT under the j-th operating condition. 2.0 The ignition delay time is obtained by multiplying the rate constant of the i-th elementary reaction by a first preset constant of 2.0; τ 0.5 The ignition delay time is obtained by multiplying the rate constant of the i-th elementary reaction by a second preset constant of 0.5.
[0038] The second sensitivity is based on Certainly, of which M ij The second sensitivity of the i-th elementary reaction to the JSR under the j-th reaction condition; n 2.0 The concentration of the major product (e.g., carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water, etc.) when the rate constant of the i-th elementary reaction is doubled; n 0.5 The concentration of the corresponding product when the rate constant of the i-th elementary reaction is halved.
[0039] It should be noted that when calculating the first and second sensitivities, the rate constants of each elementary reaction are perturbed proportionally to obtain combustion response data under different rate conditions. The amplification and reduction factors of the aforementioned rate constants are preferably set to 2.0 and 0.5, respectively, doubling and halving the rate constant of the elementary reaction. This setting is used to generate sufficiently significant output differences without compromising the overall stability of the reaction mechanism, so as to accurately assess the impact of rate constant changes on ignition delay time (IDT) and product concentration in the jet-stirred reactor (JSR). In practice, the above factors are not limited to 2.0 and 0.5. When the reaction sensitivity of the fuel system is low or high, the rate perturbation range can be appropriately adjusted to 1.5–3.0 times or 0.3–0.7 times as needed to ensure good numerical stability and discriminability of the calculation results.
[0040] In some exemplary embodiments, determining the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each of the basic reactions of the blended fuel based on the first sensitivity and the second sensitivity includes: determining a first absolute value of each of the first sensitivities and determining a third product of a first preset weighting coefficient and each of the first absolute values; determining a second absolute value of each of the second sensitivities and determining a fourth product of a second preset weighting coefficient and each of the second absolute values; and determining the sum of a plurality of the third products and the fourth products corresponding to the third products as the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each of the basic reactions.
[0041] In the above embodiments, firstly, taking the absolute value of the two types of sensitivity can eliminate the risk of mutual cancellation caused by the difference between promoting and inhibiting the sign, ensuring that all reactions that have a significant impact on the combustion process, regardless of whether they are positive or negative, will be highlighted in the comprehensive score; secondly, introducing two sets of preset weights can flexibly adjust the relative contribution of the two types of information according to the focus of the mixed fuel (e.g., focusing more on the fit of the ignition point or the fit of the product), so that the comprehensive index is aligned with the engineering goal; thirdly, summing the weighted sensitivity for each reaction to form a comprehensive sensitivity coefficient can aggregate discrete information into a single score under multiple operating conditions and multiple indexes, significantly reducing the decision-making dimension, facilitating the unified sorting and threshold screening of all elementary reactions, thereby accurately identifying the reactions that should be prioritized for retention and optimization, and improving the accuracy and computational efficiency of the three-dimensional simulation.
[0042] Specifically, according to Determine the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient, where T ij M represents the IDT sensitivity of the i-th response under operating condition j; ij Let ω1 and ω2 be the JSR sensitivity of the i-th reaction under operating condition j; the weights ω1 and ω2 are determined based on the actual fuel.
[0043] In other exemplary embodiments, determining the key reaction among the multiple elementary reactions based on the aforementioned comprehensive sensitivity coefficients, and determining the combustion conditions corresponding to the key reactions, includes: determining the elementary reactions with comprehensive sensitivity coefficients greater than a preset coefficient as the key reactions; determining the combustion conditions of the key reactions as the combustion conditions, wherein the combustion conditions include combustion ambient temperature and combustion ambient pressure.
[0044] In the above embodiments, by threshold screening of the comprehensive sensitivity coefficients of each elementary reaction, reactions that play a dominant role in combustion characteristics can be automatically identified from the vast reaction mechanism, and their dominant operating conditions under different combustion conditions can be determined. The comprehensive sensitivity coefficient reflects the overall influence of each elementary reaction on ignition delay and product distribution in a jet-stirred reactor. Comparing it with a preset threshold can effectively eliminate secondary reactions with weak influence on combustion behavior, retaining only those major reactions that significantly contribute to ignition, exothermic processes, and product formation as key reactions. Simultaneously, by combining the changing trends of the comprehensive sensitivity coefficients under different temperatures and pressures, the most sensitive combustion conditions corresponding to each key reaction can be determined. This process automates and quantifies mechanism simplification, ensuring that the selected key reactions not only represent the dominant chemical pathways of mixed fuel combustion characteristics but also guarantee that subsequent model optimization focuses on the most influential reaction set. This significantly reduces the scale of the mechanism and simulation complexity while maintaining computational accuracy, improving the computational efficiency and stability of three-dimensional combustion simulation.
[0045] In some exemplary embodiments of this application, the first simplified reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel is determined based on the hybrid leapfrog algorithm according to each of the above-mentioned key reactions and the combustion conditions corresponding to each of the above-mentioned key reactions, including: determining the rate parameters of each of the above-mentioned key reactions of each of the above-mentioned component fuels based on the hybrid leapfrog algorithm, wherein the rate parameters include pre-exponential factor, temperature index and activation energy; determining each of the second simplified reaction mechanisms of each of the above-mentioned component fuels based on the rate parameters; and determining the first simplified reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel based on each of the second simplified reaction mechanisms of each of the above-mentioned component fuels.
[0046] In the above embodiments, firstly, for the screened key reactions, the rate parameters are optimized under their corresponding sensitive operating conditions using a hybrid frog-leap algorithm. This can significantly reduce the overall error of targets such as IDT and JSR without expanding the parameter space, avoid ineffective modulation of non-key reactions and overfitting, and improve convergence speed and robustness. Subsequently, a second simplified reaction mechanism is obtained by solidifying the component fuels separately. This allows the optimal kinetic characteristics of each fuel under its dominant operating condition to be independently precipitated, reducing interference from parameter compensation between different fuels. Finally, based on this, a first simplified reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel is synthesized. On the one hand, it retains the decisive reaction path and optimized rate parameters, making the prediction accuracy of ignition delay, exothermic rate and main product concentration close to the experiment. On the other hand, by significantly reducing the number of reactions and parameters to be estimated, it significantly reduces the computational complexity and solution time of the three-dimensional simulation, improves numerical stability and cross-condition generalization ability, and thus achieves a balance between mechanism scale and simulation accuracy.
[0047] Specifically, in the previous stage, sensitivity analysis identified key reactions affecting combustion characteristics and their corresponding sensitive operating conditions. This step utilizes an improved hybrid frog-leap algorithm to globally optimize the rate parameters of these key reactions. The algorithm uses the reaction rate constant of each fuel component as the search variable, initializing multiple "frog individuals," each representing a combination of rate parameters. Through iterative mechanisms such as population partitioning, local learning, and global exchange, and combined with the difference between predicted and experimental values calculated by chemical reaction kinetics software, the algorithm dynamically adjusts each rate parameter to make the calculated results closest to the experimental data. During the iteration process, the worst-performing individual continuously learns from the locally optimal and globally optimal individuals. By introducing contraction and acceleration factors, convergence is accelerated while avoiding getting trapped in local optima, thus finding a combination of rate constants that balances accuracy and efficiency within the search space. After optimization, a second simplified reaction mechanism is obtained for each single-component fuel, i.e., a simplified model that has completed parameter optimization while maintaining the accuracy of combustion behavior. Subsequently, the second simplified mechanisms of each single fuel are merged to form the first simplified reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel. This mechanism significantly reduces the computational scale, but can still accurately reproduce the dynamic characteristics of mixed fuels in terms of ignition delay, heat release rate and the formation of major products, achieving a balance between mechanism simplification and computational accuracy.
[0048] In some further exemplary embodiments of this application, determining the first simplified reaction mechanism of the mixed fuel based on the second simplified reaction mechanisms of each of the aforementioned component fuels includes: merging the second simplified reaction mechanisms of each of the aforementioned component fuels to obtain a merged mechanism for the mixed fuel; under a preset combustion condition, determining the permissible cross-reaction mechanism and the blocking cross-reaction mechanism of each of the aforementioned elementary reactions in the combustion reaction process of the mixed fuel based on the merged mechanism, wherein the permissible cross-reaction mechanism characterizes the combustion reaction process in which intermediate components generated during combustion are allowed to participate in the reaction between the aforementioned component fuels, and the blocking cross-reaction mechanism characterizes the combustion reaction process in which intermediate components generated during combustion are not allowed to participate in the reaction between the aforementioned component fuels; determining the cross coefficient corresponding to each of the aforementioned elementary reactions based on the permissible cross-reaction mechanism and the blocking cross-reaction mechanism, wherein the cross coefficient characterizes the degree of influence of the cross-reaction between the aforementioned component fuels on the combustion characteristics of the mixed fuel; and determining the set of elementary reactions whose cross coefficients are greater than a preset cross coefficient as the first simplified reaction mechanism.
[0049] In the above embodiments, directly merging the second simplified mechanisms of each individual component fuel after completion may lead to a large number of redundant reactions and unreasonable cross-reactions in the mechanism. For example, an intermediate free radical generated by one fuel may react with another fuel, resulting in a surge in the scale and distortion of the mechanism. Therefore, the second simplified mechanisms are first merged to form a merged mechanism for the mixed fuel, providing a unified set of reactions for subsequent screening. Subsequently, under preset combustion conditions, the elementary reactions in the merged mechanism are classified as follows: Allowed cross-reaction mechanism: characterizes the pathways in which intermediate products (such as OH (hydroxyl radical), CH3 (methyl radical), etc.) are allowed to participate in the reaction across components during the combustion of each component fuel, in order to retain the energy transfer and free radical chain reaction effects present in actual combustion; Blocked cross-reaction mechanism: represents the cross-reaction pathways in which these intermediate species are artificially blocked, retaining only the internal reactions of independent combustion of each fuel, which are used as a comparison benchmark. Based on this, the cross-reaction coefficient of each elementary reaction is determined by comparing the sensitivity calculation results of allowed cross-reaction mechanism and blocked cross-reaction mechanism under the same conditions. The cross-coefficient quantitatively characterizes the cross-fuel coupling strength of the reaction and its impact on overall combustion characteristics. When the cross-coefficient is greater than a preset threshold, it indicates that the reaction significantly contributes to the combustion characteristics of the blended fuel (such as ignition delay, heat release rate, or major product distribution) and should be retained in the final mechanism; reactions below the threshold can be safely eliminated. Finally, the set of all elementary reactions with cross-coefficients exceeding the threshold is retained, constituting the first simplified reaction mechanism of the blended fuel. Through this differential screening and quantitative determination method, the number of redundant reactions is minimized while maintaining the chemical characteristics of key cross-reactions, achieving both deep simplification of the mechanism and physical consistency.
[0050] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this application, the implementation process of the simplified method for the mixed fuel reaction mechanism of this application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0051] This embodiment relates to a simplified method for a specific mixed fuel reaction mechanism, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0052] Step S1: Apply the decoupling method to initially construct a simplified mechanism for a single fuel;
[0053] The preliminary simplified mechanism constructed using the decoupling method consists of two parts. The first part is the C0 to C3 core mechanism, which represents a reaction system where the component fuels have no more than three carbon atoms. This core mechanism comprises the detailed H2 / C0 / C1 chemical mechanism and the C2 to C3 simplified sub-mechanism, which represents a reaction system where the component fuels have two to three carbon atoms. The second part is the C4 to C5 core mechanism. N Global sub-mechanisms, where C4 to CN The global sub-mechanism represents a reaction system where the component fuel has 2 to 3 carbon atoms. The basic pathway for constructing the global sub-mechanism of hydrocarbon fuel (RH) includes: Under low-temperature conditions, the fuel molecule RH undergoes a dehydrogenation reaction to generate hydrocarbon radicals (R). These hydrocarbon radicals react with oxygen to generate alkyl peroxy radicals (RO2), which then undergo intramolecular hydrogen migration to form hydroxyperoxyalkyl radicals (QOOH). These hydroxyperoxyalkyl radicals further react with oxygen molecules to generate diperoxy radicals (O2QOOH), which ultimately decompose to generate hydrogen peroxide ketones and undergo a low-temperature chain branching reaction. Under high-temperature conditions, the cracking reaction is dominant. R and RH are cracked into a series of small molecules and aggregated into a single reaction according to the β-scissor rule (an empirical rule in organic chemistry and combustion reaction kinetics describing the carbon-carbon bond breaking reaction of alkyl radicals under high-temperature conditions). Using the C0 to C3 core sub-mechanisms as the basis for a simplified mechanism of a certain carbon-based fuel, and combining the decoupling method to construct a preliminary simplified mechanism of reaction pathways, including fuel molecule dehydrogenation reaction, low-temperature oxidation reaction, high-temperature oxidation reaction, and high-temperature cracking reaction.
[0054] Step S2: Select sensitive responses and sensitive operating conditions based on comprehensive sensitivity analysis;
[0055] Basic combustion test data of the fuel in a shock tube and jet stirred reactor (JSR) were collected or tested, and the test conditions were simulated using software. Based on the comprehensive sensitivity evaluation method, the IDT and JSR component concentrations were comprehensively analyzed, and the IDT sensitivity coefficient was defined. for: JSR sensitivity coefficient for: In the formula, IDT is the reaction rate constant when it is doubled. IDT is the value of the reaction rate constant when it is reduced by half. JSR when the reaction rate constant is doubled. The JSR is the reaction rate constant reduced by half; i is the elementary reaction number, and j is the reaction condition number. According to... The comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of a certain elementary reaction under a certain reaction condition is obtained by weighting the sensitivity coefficients of IDT and JSR. The sensitivity coefficients of each reaction under each operating condition are summed and averaged. If the result is greater than a threshold, the operating condition is considered a sensitive operating condition. In the formula, the weights are... , The value is determined based on the actual fuel used. A weight of 0.5 is typically used. The top 5 reactions with the highest overall sensitivity coefficients are selected as the reactions to be optimized. Similarly, the sensitivity coefficients for each operating condition of IDT and JSR are calculated, and the sensitive operating conditions of IDT and JSR are selected accordingly.
[0056] Step S3: Optimize the combustion reaction rate constant of the reaction to be optimized in step S2 using a hybrid frog-leap algorithm written in Python.
[0057] First, the frog population is initialized by randomly generating N frogs, with the position of each frog determined by multi-dimensional parameters. The resulting variable matrix has parameters in each dimension that are pre-exponential factors of the response to be optimized. The number of subpopulations is set as p, and the number of frogs in each group is set as q, i.e., N=p. q, the maximum iteration parameter is set to G, and the initial parameter formula is: ,in, Let x be the value of the i-th frog in the j-th dimension. The Rand() function is used to generate a random number x in the range [0,1]. ⱼ : Represents the position value of an individual frog in the j-th parameter dimension. When adjusting the combustion reaction rate constant, according to... Calculation, where To initially simplify the combustion rate constant in the mechanism, This represents the updated combustion rate constant. The rate varies from 0.1 to 10 times. Frogs are assigned to the initial meme set. Chemical reaction kinetics software is used to calculate the fitness of each frog. The calculation method is as follows: In the formula, The objective function value, and These are the predicted and experimental values from chemical reaction kinetics software simulations, respectively. K represents the number of operating conditions in the shock generator and jet stirrer, with two weights. and It can be adjusted according to the specific problem, but it is usually taken as 0.5.
[0058] After calculating the fitness of N frogs, they are sorted in descending order and assigned to P meme groups. Each meme group contains q frogs. The frog with the best fitness value becomes the first frog in the first meme group, the frog with the second best fitness value moves to the second meme group, and so on. The N frogs are cyclically assigned to p meme groups. The individual with the best local and global fitness... This will become the worst fitness corresponding individual. The learning objectives.
[0059] The worst-case scenario needs to be updated and iterated. The update strategy is: worst-case scenario Towards the local optimum within the group The system learns, then recalculates the fitness; if it is better than the initial value, the first update is completed. A shrinkage factor is introduced into the update strategy. and acceleration factor This is done to improve the speed at which poor individuals move towards local and global optima, while ensuring algorithm convergence. The individual self-learning update strategy used in the local search process is as follows: , In the formula, , ,generally = =2.05, For the number of iterations, yes The step size for each movement, A random number between [0,1). This represents the upper limit of the step size movement. If based on... The computational fitness is better than If the position is not as good as the initial position, the worst individual is moved to the globally optimal position from its original position. Then, the meme group is re-sorted by fitness, and the position of the worst individual in the next iteration is updated. The learning and updating strategy is as follows: If the fitness obtained from the second calculation is better than The initial fitness is used to update the individual's position. If learning fails, a randomly generated solution is used to replace it to complete the position update. In the formula, =1, =-1. After information is exchanged within the meme group, the fitness of all individuals is rearranged and grouped, and the local update strategy is repeated to realize information exchange between meme groups. This process stops after the maximum number of iterations, and finally optimization is achieved, resulting in a simplified single-fuel reaction mechanism that simultaneously meets the requirements of computational accuracy and speed.
[0060] Step S4: The simplified mechanisms of different single fuels are combined to obtain the mechanism of mixed fuels, and the cross-effect is quantitatively characterized by element labeling.
[0061] When merging simplified mechanisms of different single fuels, all elements involved in the reaction are represented by uppercase letters, resulting in the merged mechanism M0; the elements involved in the mechanism of a single fuel F are represented by lowercase letters, while the elements involved in the mechanisms of other single fuels are still represented by uppercase letters, resulting in the merged mechanism M. c Combustion mechanisms are sensitive to element case sensitivity. Mechanism M0 allows the exchange of intermediate components generated from the reaction of a single fuel F with other single fuels, while Mc blocks this exchange, i.e., the cross-effect. A comprehensive sensitivity evaluation method is used to compare mechanism M0 and mechanism M... c The difference in sensitivity coefficients, through Calculate the cross-reactivity coefficient CC and determine strong cross-reactivity, where S is the sensitivity coefficient.
[0062] This application also provides a specific application scenario for high-temperature combustion simulation of aviation fuels. In aviation fuel combustion simulation, Jet-A (a composite fuel composed of multiple hydrocarbon compounds) or its alternative model fuel (a mixture of n-heptane, isooctane, and toluene) is typically selected as the research object. These fuels belong to multi-component complex fuel systems, and their chemical reaction mechanisms involve thousands of intermediate species and thousands of elementary reactions. Traditional mechanism simplification methods, when directly merging the mechanisms of multiple fuels, encounter the following problems: free radicals from different fuels are incorrectly coupled across mechanisms, generating false cross-reaction pathways; false coupling leads to an expansion of the mechanism scale, significantly increasing computation time; the simulated ignition delay time and heat release rate deviate severely from experimental results, failing to accurately reflect the combustion characteristics of the mixed fuel. Therefore, a construction method is needed that can identify and screen real cross-reactions while maintaining mechanism simplification. Implementation steps: First, establish second simplified mechanisms for the component fuels. For the components in the Jet-A model fuel: n-heptane, isooctane, and toluene, a hybrid frog-leap algorithm is used to optimize the rate parameters to obtain their respective second simplified mechanisms. Each single-component mechanism contains approximately 200 to 300 species and 800 to 1000 elementary reactions. Next, mechanisms are merged and cross-reactions are classified: the second simplified mechanisms of the three fuels are merged to obtain the blended fuel mechanism. Under standard aviation combustion conditions, based on the source and reaction relationships of intermediate free radicals, the blended mechanisms are divided into two categories: mechanisms that allow cross-reactions. , This includes identifying potential real chemical reactions between free radicals of different fuel components, as well as blocking cross-reaction mechanisms: all cross-fuel reaction channels of the aforementioned free radicals are blocked, retaining only the internal reactions of each fuel component to establish a comparative model for independent combustion of components. Then, cross-reaction coefficients are calculated and screened: under the same operating conditions, sensitivity analyses are performed on allowed and blocked cross-reaction mechanisms to obtain the comprehensive sensitivity coefficient of each elementary reaction, and the cross-reaction coefficient CC is calculated. When CC is greater than a set threshold, it indicates that the reaction plays a significant role in energy or free radical transfer between components and is retained as a strong cross-reaction; otherwise, it is discarded. Finally, a first simplified reaction mechanism is generated, defining the set of elementary reactions with cross-reaction coefficients greater than the threshold as the first simplified reaction mechanism for the mixed fuel. This embodiment, by screening cross-reactions of aviation fuel mixing mechanisms under high-temperature conditions, retains real free radical coupling paths and eliminates spurious reactions, reducing computational complexity by about half while ensuring the accuracy of combustion characteristic prediction, significantly improving the simulation efficiency and reliability of the high-temperature combustion process of fuel.
