A second-order conditional moment closure model for the simulation of a lifted turbulent flame

Direct Numerical Simulation of a Turbulent Lifted Flame: Stabilisation Mechanism

A turbulent lifted slot-jet flame is studied using direct numerical simulation (DNS). A single step chemistry model is employed with a mixture-fraction dependent activation energy to quantitatively reproduce the dependence of laminar burning rate on equivalence ratio that is typical of hydrocarbon fuels. It is observed that the leading flame edge exhibits a single branch close to the stoichiome...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Conditional Moment Closure Modelling of Turbulent Spray Flames

Large-Eddy Simulation of a Turbulent Lifted Flame in a Vitiated Co-Flow

Large-eddy simulation (LES) of a lifted flame in a vitiated co-flow has been performed using an unsteady flamelet/progress variable (UFPV) model. This model is an extension to the steady flamelet/progress variable approach, and describes the transient autoignition process of the lifted flame through the unsteady flamelet model. The particular advantage of this model is that it eliminates the fl...
