AbstractThe spark ignition of kerosene is investigated in a scramjet combustor with a flight condition of Ma 4, 17km. Based plentiful of experimental data, the ignition probabilities of the local ignition have been acquired for different injection setups. The ignition probability distributions show that the injection pressure and injection location have a distinct effect on spark ignition. The injection pressure has both upper and lower limit for local ignition. Generally, the larger mass flow rate will reduce the ignition probability. The ignition position also affects the ignition near the lower pressure limit. The reason is supposed to be the cavity swallow effect on upstream jet spray near the leading edge, which will make the cavity fuel rich. The corner recirculation zone near the front wall of the cavity plays a significant role in the stabilization of local flame.

    HighlightsSpark ignition of kerosene at Mach 4 flight condition in a scramjet engine.Ignition probability has been measured.The effect of injection scheme on local ignition has been studied.
