CFD fire simulation using mixture fraction combustion and finite volume radiative heat transfer
نویسندگان
چکیده
A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of fire and smoke transport is described. Combustion is represented by means of a single conserved scalar known as the mixture fraction. Radiation transport is approximated in the gray gas limit. The algorithms have been incorporated in the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS), a computer program maintained by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Sample calculations are presented demonstrating the performance of the new algorithms, especially as compared to earlier versions of the model.

Computational Study of Radiative and Convective Heat Transfer in a Cylindrical Combustion Chamber
In this paper, the effect of cold air on the fluid flow inside the cylindrical combustion chamber and its wall temperature distribution have been studied computationally, taking into account the effect of radiative heat transfer from hot gases. The results have been compared with the case that radiative heat transfer was neglected. It is observed that the reattachment length increases when incr...
