CFD Insight of the Flow Dynamics and Velocity Fields in a Gas Turbine Combustor with a Swirl Flame

The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of gas turbine combustor were performed for CH4<span st...

Can KIVA Accurately Simulate a Gas Turbine Combustor?

KIVA is a widely used (;ode for combustion simulation in engines. We discuss its shortcomings in approximating real gas turbine combustors and what might be done to improve its performance. It is assumed that the combustion and CFD phenomena are modeled with complete accuracy and that the solution of discretized versions of these models is also accurate. Thus the focus is on the geometry, grid ...

Presumed PDF Modeling of Reactive Oxy-Fuel Flow in a Model Combustor

A non-premixed coaxial oxy-fuel turbulent flame was studied numerically with standard and realizable k-ε turbulence model and a comparison was made between them. The governing equations were solved by finite volume approach and were discretized using the second order upwind scheme. The presumed β-PDF model was applied to model turbulence-combustion interaction. The discrete ordinate radiation h...
