Computation of Turbulent Diffusion and Premixed Flames with radiation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 140))

Abstract

A numerical procedure for the computation of steady turbulent flames with swirl is presented. The combustion process involves a single chemical reaction, with a probability density function fitted using mean and RMS computed mixing rate values for diffusion flames, and an Eddy-Break-Up model for premixed flames. The k-epsilon model is used for turbulence, and the flux model together with a soot production model is used for radiation. The solution procedure uses finite-difference methods in 2D, with a characteristics method for advection, in order to minimize numerical diffusion. A particular treatment of solid boundaries not parallel to coordinate axis makes it possible to map relatively complex geometries.
