Abstract
This work is a study of the effect of water addition to a combustion chamber. Starting from a review of the art and literature to understand the NOx formation phenomena and then, using the commercial computational fluid dynamics software ANSYS FLUENT to perform a sensitivity analysis of this water addition.
More specifically, first is a description of what can be found when searching for computational fluid dynamics and water injection engines. Secondly, there is shown the structure and the main characteristics of a simulation performed in ANSYS FLUENT. Finally, there’s posed a sensitivity analysis in order to see the effect of the water addition to a combustor, and the influence of the contact mode used to implement this addition.
