abstract = {Premixed piloted jet flames are an ideal generic configuration to examine the impact of turbulence on thermo-chemical states for staged-combustion systems, like rich-quench-lean technologies, which have been proposed for ammonia combustion to minimize emissions. The current study aims to gain fundamental insights on the internal scalar structure of such premixed and rich-lean stratified ammonia-hydrogen flames. Turbulent premixed NH3/H2/N2-air jet flames, stabilized by a large, lean pilot flame (ϕ<math><mi is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>ϕ</mi></math> ~=~0.57), were investigated over a range of lean to rich global equivalence ratios (ϕglobal<math><msub is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mrow is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mi is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>ϕ</mi></mrow><mrow is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mi mathvariant=textquotedblnormaltextquotedbl is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>global</mi></mrow></msub></math> ~=~0.8, 1.2, and 1.6), employing simultaneous 1D Raman/Rayleigh spectroscopy with a novel calibration approach for NH3. The quantitative scalar data of instantaneous flame structures and thermo-chemical states are analyzed with emphasis on the NH3–H2 interaction and its effects on differential diffusion. In the transition from lean to rich jet flames, the spatial flame structures reveal the presence of residual H2 in the products, while a significant minimization of the NH3 slip is observed. The remaining H2 undergoes turbulent mixing with the hot exhaust gas causing additional heat release and elevated temperatures compared to 1D adiabatic flame simulations. The local oxygen concentration is found to be a determining factor in the interaction between thermal cracking and oxidation of NH3. Due to the formation of H2 as a result of NH3 cracking on the one hand and the oxidation reactions and diffusion of H2 on the other hand, a relatively high H2 concentration is still observed at relatively high temperatures despite the presence of O2. This interplay between in situ cracking, diffusion, turbulent mixing, and oxidation reactions leads to a zone of stratified combustion, so that overall a two-stage combustion characteristic is observed, showing premixed combustion primarily within the jet flow and stratified combustion in the mixing zone with the pilot exhaust gas.},

abstract = {Fundamental studies on the effects of differential diffusion of hydrogen (H2) on flame structure are motivated as the high diffusivity of H2 presents challenges for the modeling and optimization of combustion systems. Polyhedral Bunsen flames are examples of cellular flames mainly induced by the thermal-diffusive and hydrodynamic instabilities, which are characterized by periodic positively curved troughs and negatively curved cusps. Stationary laminar premixed fuel-lean H2/CH4/air polyhedral flames, with 50%, 68% and 79% H2 (by volume) and Lewis number (Le) less than unity, are investigated in this study. The internal scalar structures of cellular troughs and cusps in target flames are measured with a high-spatial-resolution 1D Raman/Rayleigh scattering system, combined with planar laser-induced fluorescence of hydroxyl radicals (OH-PLIF) and chemiluminescence imaging measurements to quantify the cell number and local flame curvature. The performance of the 1D Raman/Rayleigh imaging system is first assessed by comparing measurements of temperature and major species in a laminar premixed counterflow H2/CH4/air twin flame with a corresponding simulation. The results reveal significant combined effects of differential diffusion and curvature on flame structures with differences between trough and cusp regions in the measured mole fractions, equivalence ratio, temperature, and C/H-atom ratio. The positively curved troughs have significantly higher H2 mole fraction compared to the negatively curved cusps, due to the respective focusing/defocusing effect of curvature on highly diffusive H2. Consequently, the local equivalence ratio and temperature in trough regions are higher than those of cusps. With the increase of H2 content in the reactant mixture, the scalar differences between trough and cusp regions are enlarged due to the enhanced effects of curvature and differential diffusion. Near-vertical initial trajectories in H2 mole fraction, equivalence ratio, and C/H-atom ratio plotted against temperature showed that differential diffusion of H2 alters the species mole fractions in the cold reactants ($łeq$ 350 K).},

The recently proposed multi-regime burner (MRB) at the Hochschule Darmstadt and the TU Darmstadt is investigated using highly-resolved Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) regarding the present combustion modes – with focus on MILD combustion – and overall flame characteristics. Thermochemical experimental data and highly resolved LES are compared for two selected operating conditions MRB18b and MRB26b.

The importance of different flame zones and burning modes was analyzed using the flame index and temperature locus diagrams. The effects of the flame zones are found to evolve with the downstream distance and show distinct differences between the two operating conditions.

abstract = {This article presents a joint numerical study on the Multi Regime Burner configuration. The burner design consists of three concentric inlet streams, which can be operated independently with different equivalence ratios, allowing the operation of stratified flames characterized by different combustion regimes, including premixed, non-premixed, and multi-regime flame zones. Simulations were performed on three LES solvers based on different numerical methods. Combustion kinetics were simplified by using tabulated or reduced chemistry methods. Finally, different turbulent combustion modeling strategies were employed, covering geometrical, statistical, and reactor based approaches. Due to this significant scattering of simulation parameters, a conclusion on specific combustion model performance is impossible. However, with ten numerical groups involved in the numerical simulations, a rough statistical analysis is conducted: the average and the standard deviation of the numerical simulation are computed and compared against experiments. This joint numerical study is therefore a partial illustration of the community's ability to model turbulent combustion. This exercise gives the average performance of current simulations and identifies physical phenomena not well captured today by most modeling strategies. Detailed comparisons between experimental and numerical data along radial profiles taken at different axial positions showed that the temperature field is fairly well captured up to 60 mm from the burner exit. The comparison reveals, however, significant discrepancies regarding CO mass fraction prediction. Three causes may explain this phenomenon. The first reason is the higher sensitivity of carbon monoxide to the simplification of detailed chemistry, especially when multiple combustion regimes are encountered. The second is the bias introduced by artificial thickening, which overestimates the species' mass production rate. This behavior has been illustrated by manufacturing mean thickened turbulent flame brush from a random displacement of 1-D laminar flame solutions. The last one is the influence of the subgrid-scale flame wrinkling on the filtered chemical flame structure, which may be challenging to model.},

As a result, different types of cellular patterns can occur along the flame front in a laminar scenario. In this context, an interesting phenomenon is the formation of polyhedral flames which can be observed in a Bunsen burner. It is the objective of this work to systematically characterize the polyhedral structures of premixed methane/hydrogen Bunsen flames in a combined experimental and numerical study. A series of lean flames with hydrogen content varying between 20 and 85% at two equivalence ratios is investigated. The experiments encompass chemiluminescence imaging together with Planar Laser-induced Fluorescence (PLIF) measurements of the OH radical. Characteristic cell sizes are quantified from the experiments and related to the characteristic length scales obtained from a linear stability analysis. In the experiments, it is observed that the cell sizes at the base of the polyhedral Bunsen flames decrease almost linearly with hydrogen addition and only a weak dependence on the equivalence ratio is noted. These trends are well reflected in the numerical results and the length scale comparison further shows that the wavelength with the maximum growth rate predicted by the linear stability analysis is comparable to the cell size obtained from the experiment. The correlation between the experimental findings and the linear stability analysis is discussed from multiple perspectives considering the governing time and length scales, furthermore drawing relations to previous studies on cellular flames.},

abstract = {Hydrogen is a carbon-free energy carrier that can substantially support the decarbonization of the power generation and transportation sector in the near future. Blending H2 into natural gas represents a feasible option to continue using the current infrastructure, allowing a smooth transition to pure H2 combustion technologies. In the present study, a flamelet model is proposed to describe lean CH4–H2-air laminar Bunsen flames with inert gas as a coflow, simultaneously taking into account multiple complex physical phenomena such as differential diffusion, heat losses at the burner wall and mixing between the main flow and coflow. In most previous works based on manifold-based reduction methods, transport equations are solved for the progress variable, mixture fraction and enthalpy. In contrast, transport equations for several species and enthalpy are solved in the present study and species diffusivities are evaluated with a mixture-averaged diffusion model. The control variables of the manifold are then reconstructed with those transported variables. In order to consider the mixing between the main flow and the inert coflow, two different approaches based on a three-dimensional and a four-dimensional manifold, respectively, are formulated and assessed. Utilizing a ``linear mixing'' assumption, the three-dimensional manifold is parameterized by a progress variable, an approximate Bilger mixture fraction and enthalpy. The four-dimensional manifold relaxes this assumption and additionally includes the inert gas mass fraction as the fourth control variable. The accuracy of the two approaches is evaluated by comparison with detailed chemistry results and experimental measurements. Overall, results obtained with both approaches show good agreement with the reference data, both qualitatively and quantitatively, indicating that all the effects mentioned above are well captured. Slightly better agreement is achieved with the four-dimensional manifold, which shows superiority in the mixing layer between the main flow and the inert coflow.},

abstract = {Chemical energy vectors will play a crucial role in the transition of the global energy system, due to their essential advantages in storing energy in form of gaseous, liquid, or solid fuels. Ammonia (NH3) has been identified as a highly promising candidate, as it is carbon-free, can be stored at moderate pressures, and already has a developed distribution infrastructure. As a fuel NH3 has poor combustion properties that can be improved by the addition of hydrogen, which can be obtained energy-efficiently by partially cracking ammonia into hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) prior to the combustion process. The resulting NH3/H2/N2 blend leads to significantly improved flame stability and resilience to strain-induced blow-out, despite similar laminar flame properties compared to equivalent methane/air flames. This study reports the first measurements of extinction strain rates, measured using the premixed twin-flame configuration in a laminar opposed jet burner, for two NH3/H2/N2 blends over a range of equivalence ratios. Local strain rates are measured using particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) and are related to the inflow conditions, such that the local strain rate at the extinction point can be approximated. The results are compared with 1D-simulations using three recent kinetic mechanisms for ammonia oxidation. By relating the extinction strain rates to laminar flame properties of the unstretched flame, a comparison of the extinction behaviour of CH4 and NH3/H2/N2 blends can be made. For lean mixtures, NH3/H2/N2-air flames show a significant higher extinction resistance in comparison to CH4/air. In addition, a strong non-linear dependence between the resistance to extinction and equivalence ratio for NH3/H2/N2 blends is observed.},

Therefore, it is important to make these processes efficient and clean. This needs more predictive numerical simulation tools and an improved understanding of the combustion process. For this purpose, spatially resolved measurements of local thermochemical states in reaction zones are required, for which combined Raman- and Rayleigh spectroscopy is suitable. Since a large number of intermediate hydrocarbons occur in the reaction zones of ethanol and OME flames, Raman spectroscopy must be evolved for quantitative measurement of these species over a wide temperature range. Against this background, this study pursues the goal of creating the instrumental and apparatus-related pre-requisites. The setup of a new dual-dispersion spectrometer and its main specifications are presented. The usability of the spectrometer is demonstrated on the example of premixed and partially-premixed ethanol/air and OME-3/air flames. For this purpose, a new counterflow burner is presented, which enables laminar, single-phase combustion processes of pre-vaporized fuels.},

abstract = {In practical applications, partial premixing of fuel and oxidizer, as well as recirculation of combustion products, result in complex combustion scenarios where multi-regime effects arise and a numerical representation of local reaction zones by purely premixed or purely non-premixed flame structures may not hold. Here, a novel burner system is introduced to investigate the fundamental characteristics of multi-regime combustion and to provide a basis for validating numerical models. This multi-regime burner (MRB) is specifically designed to produce flames with multi-regime characteristics while maintaining well-defined boundary conditions. Thermochemical data from Raman/Rayleigh/CO-LIF scattering experiments are provided for two selected operating conditions. The experimental investigation focuses on the overall flame structure by examining radial profiles of temperature and mixture fraction, as well as scatter plots of temperature, CH4, and CO versus mixture fraction. In order to assess the relative importance of different flame regimes, the gradient-free regime identification (GFRI) approach is extended to allow for an automated classification of local reaction zone structures. Classification criteria are defined, based on the ratio of local heat release rate peaks associated with premixed and non-premixed reaction zones located in close spatial proximity, and an automated process is implemented to classify 1D Raman/Rayleigh sample lines as premixed, dominantly premixed, multi-regime, dominantly non-premixed, or non-premixed flame zones. The importance of different flame zones, indicated by their population fractions, are found to evolve with downstream distance and show distinct differences between the two selected flames. Further, a prior analysis is used to test the applicability of 1D flame structure assumptions for the underlying combustion regime.},

abstract = {Premixed piloted jet flames are an ideal generic configuration to examine the impact of turbulence on thermo-chemical states for staged-combustion systems, like rich-quench-lean technologies, which have been proposed for ammonia combustion to minimize emissions. The current study aims to gain fundamental insights on the internal scalar structure of such premixed and rich-lean stratified ammonia-hydrogen flames. Turbulent premixed NH3/H2/N2-air jet flames, stabilized by a large, lean pilot flame (ϕ<math><mi is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>ϕ</mi></math> ~=~0.57), were investigated over a range of lean to rich global equivalence ratios (ϕglobal<math><msub is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mrow is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mi is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>ϕ</mi></mrow><mrow is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl><mi mathvariant=textquotedblnormaltextquotedbl is=textquotedbltruetextquotedbl>global</mi></mrow></msub></math> ~=~0.8, 1.2, and 1.6), employing simultaneous 1D Raman/Rayleigh spectroscopy with a novel calibration approach for NH3. The quantitative scalar data of instantaneous flame structures and thermo-chemical states are analyzed with emphasis on the NH3–H2 interaction and its effects on differential diffusion. In the transition from lean to rich jet flames, the spatial flame structures reveal the presence of residual H2 in the products, while a significant minimization of the NH3 slip is observed. The remaining H2 undergoes turbulent mixing with the hot exhaust gas causing additional heat release and elevated temperatures compared to 1D adiabatic flame simulations. The local oxygen concentration is found to be a determining factor in the interaction between thermal cracking and oxidation of NH3. Due to the formation of H2 as a result of NH3 cracking on the one hand and the oxidation reactions and diffusion of H2 on the other hand, a relatively high H2 concentration is still observed at relatively high temperatures despite the presence of O2. This interplay between in situ cracking, diffusion, turbulent mixing, and oxidation reactions leads to a zone of stratified combustion, so that overall a two-stage combustion characteristic is observed, showing premixed combustion primarily within the jet flow and stratified combustion in the mixing zone with the pilot exhaust gas.},

The flame features stronger differential diffusion and curvature effects than that in the planar laminar flame, which indicates that both molecular and turbulent mixing play significant roles, and thermo-diffusive instabilities have synergistic interactions with turbulence at low turbulence level.

abstract = {Fundamental studies on the effects of differential diffusion of hydrogen (H2) on flame structure are motivated as the high diffusivity of H2 presents challenges for the modeling and optimization of combustion systems. Polyhedral Bunsen flames are examples of cellular flames mainly induced by the thermal-diffusive and hydrodynamic instabilities, which are characterized by periodic positively curved troughs and negatively curved cusps. Stationary laminar premixed fuel-lean H2/CH4/air polyhedral flames, with 50%, 68% and 79% H2 (by volume) and Lewis number (Le) less than unity, are investigated in this study. The internal scalar structures of cellular troughs and cusps in target flames are measured with a high-spatial-resolution 1D Raman/Rayleigh scattering system, combined with planar laser-induced fluorescence of hydroxyl radicals (OH-PLIF) and chemiluminescence imaging measurements to quantify the cell number and local flame curvature. The performance of the 1D Raman/Rayleigh imaging system is first assessed by comparing measurements of temperature and major species in a laminar premixed counterflow H2/CH4/air twin flame with a corresponding simulation. The results reveal significant combined effects of differential diffusion and curvature on flame structures with differences between trough and cusp regions in the measured mole fractions, equivalence ratio, temperature, and C/H-atom ratio. The positively curved troughs have significantly higher H2 mole fraction compared to the negatively curved cusps, due to the respective focusing/defocusing effect of curvature on highly diffusive H2. Consequently, the local equivalence ratio and temperature in trough regions are higher than those of cusps. With the increase of H2 content in the reactant mixture, the scalar differences between trough and cusp regions are enlarged due to the enhanced effects of curvature and differential diffusion. Near-vertical initial trajectories in H2 mole fraction, equivalence ratio, and C/H-atom ratio plotted against temperature showed that differential diffusion of H2 alters the species mole fractions in the cold reactants ($łeq$ 350 K).},

The recently proposed multi-regime burner (MRB) at the Hochschule Darmstadt and the TU Darmstadt is investigated using highly-resolved Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) regarding the present combustion modes – with focus on MILD combustion – and overall flame characteristics. Thermochemical experimental data and highly resolved LES are compared for two selected operating conditions MRB18b and MRB26b.

The importance of different flame zones and burning modes was analyzed using the flame index and temperature locus diagrams. The effects of the flame zones are found to evolve with the downstream distance and show distinct differences between the two operating conditions.

abstract = {This article presents a joint numerical study on the Multi Regime Burner configuration. The burner design consists of three concentric inlet streams, which can be operated independently with different equivalence ratios, allowing the operation of stratified flames characterized by different combustion regimes, including premixed, non-premixed, and multi-regime flame zones. Simulations were performed on three LES solvers based on different numerical methods. Combustion kinetics were simplified by using tabulated or reduced chemistry methods. Finally, different turbulent combustion modeling strategies were employed, covering geometrical, statistical, and reactor based approaches. Due to this significant scattering of simulation parameters, a conclusion on specific combustion model performance is impossible. However, with ten numerical groups involved in the numerical simulations, a rough statistical analysis is conducted: the average and the standard deviation of the numerical simulation are computed and compared against experiments. This joint numerical study is therefore a partial illustration of the community's ability to model turbulent combustion. This exercise gives the average performance of current simulations and identifies physical phenomena not well captured today by most modeling strategies. Detailed comparisons between experimental and numerical data along radial profiles taken at different axial positions showed that the temperature field is fairly well captured up to 60 mm from the burner exit. The comparison reveals, however, significant discrepancies regarding CO mass fraction prediction. Three causes may explain this phenomenon. The first reason is the higher sensitivity of carbon monoxide to the simplification of detailed chemistry, especially when multiple combustion regimes are encountered. The second is the bias introduced by artificial thickening, which overestimates the species' mass production rate. This behavior has been illustrated by manufacturing mean thickened turbulent flame brush from a random displacement of 1-D laminar flame solutions. The last one is the influence of the subgrid-scale flame wrinkling on the filtered chemical flame structure, which may be challenging to model.},

abstract = {In premixed flame propagation of lean hydrogen or hydrogen-enriched blends, both hydrodynamic and thermo-diffusive instabilities are governing the flame front shape and affect its propagation velocity. As a result, different types of cellular patterns can occur along the flame front in a laminar scenario. In this context, an interesting phenomenon is the formation of polyhedral flames which can be observed in a Bunsen burner. It is the objective of this work to systematically characterize the polyhedral structures of premixed methane/hydrogen Bunsen flames in a combined experimental and numerical study. A series of lean flames with hydrogen content varying between 20 and 85% at two equivalence ratios is investigated. The experiments encompass chemiluminescence imaging together with Planar Laser-induced Fluorescence (PLIF) measurements of the OH radical. Characteristic cell sizes are quantified from the experiments and related to the characteristic length scales obtained from a linear stability analysis. In the experiments, it is observed that the cell sizes at the base of the polyhedral Bunsen flames decrease almost linearly with hydrogen addition and only a weak dependence on the equivalence ratio is noted. These trends are well reflected in the numerical results and the length scale comparison further shows that the wavelength with the maximum growth rate predicted by the linear stability analysis is comparable to the cell size obtained from the experiment. The correlation between the experimental findings and the linear stability analysis is discussed from multiple perspectives considering the governing time and length scales, furthermore drawing relations to previous studies on cellular flames.},

abstract = {Hydrogen is a carbon-free energy carrier that can substantially support the decarbonization of the power generation and transportation sector in the near future. Blending H2 into natural gas represents a feasible option to continue using the current infrastructure, allowing a smooth transition to pure H2 combustion technologies. In the present study, a flamelet model is proposed to describe lean CH4–H2-air laminar Bunsen flames with inert gas as a coflow, simultaneously taking into account multiple complex physical phenomena such as differential diffusion, heat losses at the burner wall and mixing between the main flow and coflow. In most previous works based on manifold-based reduction methods, transport equations are solved for the progress variable, mixture fraction and enthalpy. In contrast, transport equations for several species and enthalpy are solved in the present study and species diffusivities are evaluated with a mixture-averaged diffusion model. The control variables of the manifold are then reconstructed with those transported variables. In order to consider the mixing between the main flow and the inert coflow, two different approaches based on a three-dimensional and a four-dimensional manifold, respectively, are formulated and assessed. Utilizing a ``linear mixing'' assumption, the three-dimensional manifold is parameterized by a progress variable, an approximate Bilger mixture fraction and enthalpy. The four-dimensional manifold relaxes this assumption and additionally includes the inert gas mass fraction as the fourth control variable. The accuracy of the two approaches is evaluated by comparison with detailed chemistry results and experimental measurements. Overall, results obtained with both approaches show good agreement with the reference data, both qualitatively and quantitatively, indicating that all the effects mentioned above are well captured. Slightly better agreement is achieved with the four-dimensional manifold, which shows superiority in the mixing layer between the main flow and the inert coflow.},

abstract = {Chemical energy vectors will play a crucial role in the transition of the global energy system, due to their essential advantages in storing energy in form of gaseous, liquid, or solid fuels. Ammonia (NH3) has been identified as a highly promising candidate, as it is carbon-free, can be stored at moderate pressures, and already has a developed distribution infrastructure. As a fuel NH3 has poor combustion properties that can be improved by the addition of hydrogen, which can be obtained energy-efficiently by partially cracking ammonia into hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) prior to the combustion process. The resulting NH3/H2/N2 blend leads to significantly improved flame stability and resilience to strain-induced blow-out, despite similar laminar flame properties compared to equivalent methane/air flames. This study reports the first measurements of extinction strain rates, measured using the premixed twin-flame configuration in a laminar opposed jet burner, for two NH3/H2/N2 blends over a range of equivalence ratios. Local strain rates are measured using particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) and are related to the inflow conditions, such that the local strain rate at the extinction point can be approximated. The results are compared with 1D-simulations using three recent kinetic mechanisms for ammonia oxidation. By relating the extinction strain rates to laminar flame properties of the unstretched flame, a comparison of the extinction behaviour of CH4 and NH3/H2/N2 blends can be made. For lean mixtures, NH3/H2/N2-air flames show a significant higher extinction resistance in comparison to CH4/air. In addition, a strong non-linear dependence between the resistance to extinction and equivalence ratio for NH3/H2/N2 blends is observed.},

Therefore, it is important to make these processes efficient and clean. This needs more predictive numerical simulation tools and an improved understanding of the combustion process. For this purpose, spatially resolved measurements of local thermochemical states in reaction zones are required, for which combined Raman- and Rayleigh spectroscopy is suitable. Since a large number of intermediate hydrocarbons occur in the reaction zones of ethanol and OME flames, Raman spectroscopy must be evolved for quantitative measurement of these species over a wide temperature range. Against this background, this study pursues the goal of creating the instrumental and apparatus-related pre-requisites. The setup of a new dual-dispersion spectrometer and its main specifications are presented. The usability of the spectrometer is demonstrated on the example of premixed and partially-premixed ethanol/air and OME-3/air flames. For this purpose, a new counterflow burner is presented, which enables laminar, single-phase combustion processes of pre-vaporized fuels.},

abstract = {In practical applications, partial premixing of fuel and oxidizer, as well as recirculation of combustion products, result in complex combustion scenarios where multi-regime effects arise and a numerical representation of local reaction zones by purely premixed or purely non-premixed flame structures may not hold. Here, a novel burner system is introduced to investigate the fundamental characteristics of multi-regime combustion and to provide a basis for validating numerical models. This multi-regime burner (MRB) is specifically designed to produce flames with multi-regime characteristics while maintaining well-defined boundary conditions. Thermochemical data from Raman/Rayleigh/CO-LIF scattering experiments are provided for two selected operating conditions. The experimental investigation focuses on the overall flame structure by examining radial profiles of temperature and mixture fraction, as well as scatter plots of temperature, CH4, and CO versus mixture fraction. In order to assess the relative importance of different flame regimes, the gradient-free regime identification (GFRI) approach is extended to allow for an automated classification of local reaction zone structures. Classification criteria are defined, based on the ratio of local heat release rate peaks associated with premixed and non-premixed reaction zones located in close spatial proximity, and an automated process is implemented to classify 1D Raman/Rayleigh sample lines as premixed, dominantly premixed, multi-regime, dominantly non-premixed, or non-premixed flame zones. The importance of different flame zones, indicated by their population fractions, are found to evolve with downstream distance and show distinct differences between the two selected flames. Further, a prior analysis is used to test the applicability of 1D flame structure assumptions for the underlying combustion regime.},
