Abstract
An experimental results on the dynamic characteristics of hydrocarbon/air premixed flames with ultrasonic standing waves are presented and compared. Images of the propagating flames were acquired by using a high-speed camera, and the flame behavior of methane/air and propane/air premixed flame were closely scrutinized through the image post-processing. At the fuel-lean conditions, the flame propagation velocity increased due to the intervention of the ultrasonic standing wave and vice versa at the fuel-rich conditions.
