Zusammenfassung: Hydrogen combustion in a sequential combustor with a propagation-stabilized flame in the first stage and an autoignition-stabilized flame in the second reheat stage offers fuel flexible and efficient power generation with minimal greenhouse gas emissions. However, unsteady thermoacoustic phenomena driven by the interactions between the flame dynamics and the combustor acoustics can result in large amplitude heat release rate and pressure oscillations, which can cause hardware damage and performance losses. A key component required to understand and predict thermoacoustic oscillations in reheat combustors is the knowledge of the response of the autoignition-stabilized flame to unsteady acoustic and convective disturbances. In this paper, we extend a simplified particle based framework, originally proposed for computing the flame response in a simple one-dimensional reheat combustor configuration (Gopalakrishnan et al. 2021), to a two-dimensional backward-facing step geometry. The present particle based framework treats the flow as a collection of independent Lagrangian fluid elements which evolve in time. The temperature evolution of each fluid particle is computed by integrating the momentum, energy and species mass balance equations for that particle in time. The unsteady heat release rate and instantaneous flame position are then computed by stitching together the particle evolution data. The predictions of the flame response framework are thereafter compared with fully compressible Large eddy simulations (LES) of a reheat flame forced by acoustic and entropy disturbances. The flame response predictions obtained from the present approach match well with the LES data, suggesting that the present particle based framework can be used to compute flame transfer functions of reheat flames and consequently give insight into the thermoacoustic stability characteristics of reheat combustors.
