Pdf Simulation of Premixed Combustion in Turbulent Flows

Three-dimensional PDF simulation of a piloted turbulent non-premixed jet flame

Turbulent combustion is an important process in many technical applications, e.g. industrial gas furnaces used for heating water, production of steam and combustion in jet and diesel engines. To control the turbulent combustion, simulation tools with predictive power are required. The basic equations for turbulent combustion are well known, but their application to the complex flows appearing i...

Small scales, many species and the manifold challenges of turbulent combustion

Amajor goal of combustion research is to develop accurate, tractable, predictive models for the phenomena occurring in combustion devices, which predominantly involve turbulent flows. With the focus on gasphase, non-premixed flames, recent progress is reviewed, and the significant remaining challenges facing models of turbulent combustion are examined. The principal challenges are posed by the ...

Transient Combustion Modeling of an Oscillating Lean Premixed Methane/air Flame

The main objective of the present study is to demonstrate accurate low frequency transient turbulent combustion modeling. For accurate flame dynamics some improvements were made to the standard TFC combustion model for lean premixed combustion. With use of a 1D laminar flamelet code, predictions have been made for the laminar flame speed and the critical strain rate to improve the TFC (Turbulen...

Large-Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Combustion

In recent years, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) has been successfully applied to non-premixed and premixed turbulent combustion problems [1, 2, 3]. In most technical combustion applications, the pure non-premixed or premixed combustion models are no longer valid, since partially premixed combustion has to be taken into account. An example is the stabilization region of a lifted non-premixed flame....
