The role of electric fields in stabilising combustion is a well-known phenomenon. Among the
possible mechanisms favouring the anchorage of the flame base, the ion-driven wind acting …

Under an electric field, ions in the reaction zone of a flame generate a bulk flow motion
called ionic wind. Because the majority of ions are positive, ionic wind is commonly …

The role of the ionic wind effects on modifying flame dynamics was demonstrated by
detailed computational models. Full three-dimensional simulations were conducted to …

The application of an external electric field is known to improve flame stability significantly.
Until now, few studies have proposed modelling approaches for combustion in the presence …

The effect of electric fields on the characteristics of flame spread over insulated electrical
wire has been investigated experimentally by varying AC voltage and frequency applied to …

In this article, a coupled PBE-CFD framework has been proposed to study counterflow non-
premixed flames and soot formation under an external electric field. This framework …

When drawn from a flame by an electric field, ion and electron collisions with neutral gas
molecules influence flame shape, combustion intensity, soot formation, and the ion …

We develop a simplified model to better explain electric current response when direct
current (DC) is applied to a flame. In particular, different current responses have been …

Two-dimensional axisymmetric simulations for counterflow non-premixed methane-air
flames were undertaken as an attempt to reproduce the experimentally observed electro …

An applied DC electric field was experimentally demonstrated to modify the flame structure
and gas dynamic in an ethylene diffusion flame. The aim of this paper is to investigate the …
