Large Eddy Simulation of a Non-Premixed Turbulent Burner Using a Dynamically Thickened Flame Model

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications ((FMIA,volume 70))

Abstract

A new LES subgrid scale turbulent combustion model, adapted to combustion regimes which are nor perfectly premixed or non-premixed, is tested in a simplified configuration. This model does not require any a priori assumption on the flame structure and is able to compute flows where both premixed and non-premixed flamelets coexist. Three combustion regimes are successfully recovered in numerical simulations.
