Book Advances in Particle finite Volume Algorithms for Turbulent Reactive Flows

Download or read book Advances in Particle finite Volume Algorithms for Turbulent Reactive Flows written by Pavel Petkov Popov and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the field of turbulent reactive flow simulations, hybrid particle/finite volume large eddy simulation/probability density function (LES/PDF) methods have been shown to be highly accurate in simulating laboratory-scale flames. Their strengths lie in the combination of the large eddy simulation procedure's ability to resolve the large, non-universal scales of turbulence, combined with the fact that probability density function models for turbulent combustion require no closure for the highly non-linear chemistry source term. This work presents advances in such hybrid particle/finite volume LES/PDF algorithms for turbulent reactive flows. New time stepping, interpolation, and coupling schemes have been proposed with the goal of reducing particle mass consistency (PMC) error (defined as the discrepancy between particle mass density and resolved finite volume density) and overall simulation error. The Multi-step Second-order Runge-Kutta (MRK2) integration scheme is an ODE integration scheme designed for reducing PMC errors when applied to discontinuous velocity fields. When applied to a discontinuous velocity field such as might be produced by a state-of-the art velocity interpolation scheme, MRK2 preserves the continuity of the Lagrangian position mapping and is second-order convergent in time, as opposed to a standard second-order Runge-Kutta scheme, which is only first-order convergent in time when applied to a discontinuous velocity field. The Direct Richardson p-th order (DRp) is a conceptually new family of SDE integration schemes which are weakly p-th order accurate in time, where p is an arbitrary positive integer. Unlike standard SDE integration schemes, which are based on matching appropriate terms in the Ito-Taylor expansion of the stochastic process, the DRp schemes work via Richardson extrapolation between the probability density functions of a set of first-order accurate Euler approximations with differing time steps. In the context of the Large Eddy Simulation/Probability Density Function (LES/PDF) code developed by the Turbulence and Combustion Group at Cornell University, a PDF to LES density coupling scheme via a transported specific volume (TSV) has been developed. While coupling approaches similar to TSV have been used previously in LES/PDF application, the present implementation is the first to allow overall second-order accuracy of the LES/PDF code in space and time. New implicit and explicit schemes for PMC error reduction schemes have been developed and tested in the context of the Sandia-Sydney bluff-body flame. Implicit PMC preservation schemes include new velocity and diffusivity interpolation algorithms, and explicit PMC error correction is achieved via a corrective velocity. While corrective velocity schemes have been used previously, the present algorithm, featuring a smoothed version of the PMC error field, is capable of maintaining the same PMC error levels with a corrective velocity of lower magnitude. Finally, the LES/PDF algorithm, developed by the Turbulence and Combustion group at Cornell, is applied to the Sandia-Sydney bluff-body flames. Comparison is made with experimental data, and the new code is in better agreement with experiment than previous simulations of the same series of flames.

Download or read book Turbulent Reactive Flows written by R. Borghi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-08 with total page 958 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulent reactive flows are of common occurrance in combustion engineering, chemical reactor technology and various types of engines producing power and thrust utilizing chemical and nuclear fuels. Pollutant formation and dispersion in the atmospheric environment and in rivers, lakes and ocean also involve interactions between turbulence, chemical reactivity and heat and mass transfer processes. Considerable advances have occurred over the past twenty years in the understanding, analysis, measurement, prediction and control of turbulent reactive flows. Two main contributors to such advances are improvements in instrumentation and spectacular growth in computation: hardware, sciences and skills and data processing software, each leading to developments in others. Turbulence presents several features that are situation-specific. Both for that reason and a number of others, it is yet difficult to visualize a so-called solution of the turbulence problem or even a generalized approach to the problem. It appears that recognition of patterns and structures in turbulent flow and their study based on considerations of stability, interactions, chaos and fractal character may be opening up an avenue of research that may be leading to a generalized approach to classification and analysis and, possibly, prediction of specific processes in the flowfield. Predictions for engineering use, on the other hand, can be foreseen for sometime to come to depend upon modeling of selected features of turbulence at various levels of sophistication dictated by perceived need and available capability.

Book Turbulent Combustion Modeling

Download or read book Turbulent Combustion Modeling written by Tarek Echekki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-12-25 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulent combustion sits at the interface of two important nonlinear, multiscale phenomena: chemistry and turbulence. Its study is extremely timely in view of the need to develop new combustion technologies in order to address challenges associated with climate change, energy source uncertainty, and air pollution. Despite the fact that modeling of turbulent combustion is a subject that has been researched for a number of years, its complexity implies that key issues are still eluding, and a theoretical description that is accurate enough to make turbulent combustion models rigorous and quantitative for industrial use is still lacking. In this book, prominent experts review most of the available approaches in modeling turbulent combustion, with particular focus on the exploding increase in computational resources that has allowed the simulation of increasingly detailed phenomena. The relevant algorithms are presented, the theoretical methods are explained, and various application examples are given. The book is intended for a relatively broad audience, including seasoned researchers and graduate students in engineering, applied mathematics and computational science, engine designers and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) practitioners, scientists at funding agencies, and anyone wishing to understand the state-of-the-art and the future directions of this scientifically challenging and practically important field.

Book Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow

Download or read book Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow written by Elaine S. Oran and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reactive flows encompass a broad range of physical phenomena, interacting over many different time and space scales. Such flows occur in combustion, chemical lasers, the earth's oceans and atmosphere, and stars and interstellar space. Despite the obvious physical differences in these flows, there is a striking similarity in the forms of their descriptive equations. Thus, the considerations and procedures for constructing numerical models of these systems are also similar, and these similarities can be exploited. Moreover, using the latest technology, what were once difficult and expensive computations can now be done on desktop computers. This book takes account of the explosive growth in computer technology and the greatly increased capacity for solving complex reactive flow problems that have occurred since the first edition of Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow was published in 1987. It presents algorithms useful for reactive flow simulations, describes trade-offs involved in their use, and gives guidance for building and using models of complex reactive flows.
