EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERIZATION OF INTERFACE PROPERTIES IN THE FRAMEWORK OF MultiSECtioning STRATEGY: PRELIMINARY RESULTS

MultiSECtioning strategy has been proposed as a methodological procedure to pursue a sequential approach to the evaluation and verification of non premixed diffusion controlled combustion processes. The starting point is the well known result that, when a non diffusive tracer is introduced into part of the flow, it determines the establishment of an interface. An experimental system aimed at reproduce the evolution of an interface in controlled conditions is presented in the paper. The system has been purposely designed in order to be suitable for a direct experimental/numerical comparison. Some preliminary results, obtained in properly conditions, are presented and discussed.
