“本科生科研训练”题目
课题1,金属颗粒点火燃烧模型研究
备注:硼、镁、铝作为高能金属燃料,具有极高的体积热值和质量热值,是固体火箭发动机的理想燃料。本课题将调研金属颗粒点火燃烧的研究进展,发展/建立简化分析模型,重点研究硼颗粒点火燃烧机理。
课题2,复杂化学反应过程分析
备注: 传统燃料和生物质燃料的燃烧过程中会涉及复杂的化学反应过程。为了定量预测燃烧过程,必需在模型中考虑复杂化学反应过程。本课题将采用TChem 来分析化学反应过程。
每年招收博士研究生
本课题组每年计划招收博士研究生1~2名。研究方向为燃烧基础研究(见“科研”)。欢迎有流体力学、工程热物理、或应用数学知识背景的应往届本科毕业生和研究生前来一起从事燃烧研究。请直接与我联系(Email: cz(at)pku.edu.cn)。
