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 Turbulent Premixed Flames

Download or read book Turbulent Premixed Flames written by Nedunchezhian Swaminathan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-25 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A work on turbulent premixed combustion is important because of increased concern about the environmental impact of combustion and the search for new combustion concepts and technologies. An improved understanding of lean fuel turbulent premixed flames must play a central role in the fundamental science of these new concepts. Lean premixed flames have the potential to offer ultra-low emission levels, but they are notoriously susceptible to combustion oscillations. Thus, sophisticated control measures are inevitably required. The editors' intent is to set out the modeling aspects in the field of turbulent premixed combustion. Good progress has been made on this topic, and this cohesive volume contains contributions from international experts on various subtopics of the lean premixed flame problem.

Book Flamme en V turbulente   simulation num  rique directe et mod  lisation de la combustion turbulente pr  m  lang  e

Download or read book Flamme en V turbulente simulation num rique directe et mod lisation de la combustion turbulente pr m lang e written by Raphae͏̈l Hauguel and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ces travaux sont principalement consacrés à l'étude de la combustion turbulente prémélangée et à sa modélisation. L'outil numérique qui a été choisi est la Simulation Numérique Directe (DNS). Tout d'abord, des flammes planes placées dans des turbulences homogènes et isotropes ont été simulées. Il a été montré que cette configuration ne permet pas d'obtenir de solutions statistiquement stationnaires, ce qui limite considérablement leur utilisation pour tester des modélisations qui ont pour objet de décrire le comportement des champs moyens. L'accent a alors porté sur la réalisation de DNS proches de configurations expérimentales. Des flammes en V se développant dans différentes turbulences de grille et stabilisées par un fil chaud ont été étudiées. A partir des données issues de la DNS, l'interaction flamme-turbulence a été analysée. Deux régimes de transport turbulent sont observés : un régime de type gradient et un régime de type contre-gradient. C'est donc une formulation au second ordre qui a été retenue pour analyser la modélisation de la combustion turbulente. La formulation au second ordre fait intervenir de nouveaux termes qui doivent être modélisés pour que le problème soit fermé. Ce sont les modèles basés sur l'approche conditionnelle développée par Bray, Moss et Libby qui sera retenue. Suivant ce formalisme, une évaluation des termes et des fermetures existantes a été effectuée. Puis de nouveaux modèles, plus précis, ont été proposés. Enfin, les travaux ont évolué vers l'étude de la densité de surface de flamme. Sa fermeture algébrique et les termes, qui apparaissent dans son équation de transport, ont été étudiés. A l'aide de ces résultats, une nouvelle fermeture pour le taux de dissipation scalaire est proposée.

Book Fundamentals of Premixed Turbulent Combustion

Download or read book Fundamentals of Premixed Turbulent Combustion written by Andrei Lipatnikov and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lean burning of premixed gases is considered to be a promising combustion technology for future clean and highly efficient gas turbine combustors. Yet researchers face several challenges in dealing with premixed turbulent combustion, from its nonlinear multiscale nature and the impact of local phenomena to the multitude of competing models. Filling a gap in the literature, Fundamentals of Premixed Turbulent Combustion introduces the state of the art of premixed turbulent combustion in an accessible manner for newcomers and experienced researchers alike. To more deeply consider current research issues, the book focuses on the physical mechanisms and phenomenology of premixed flames, with a brief discussion of recent advances in partially premixed turbulent combustion. It begins with a summary of the relevant knowledge needed from disciplines such as thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, molecular transport processes, and fluid dynamics. The book then presents experimental data on the general appearance of premixed turbulent flames and details the physical mechanisms that could affect the flame behavior. It also examines the physical and numerical models for predicting the key features of premixed turbulent combustion. Emphasizing critical analysis, the book compares competing concepts and viewpoints with one another and with the available experimental data, outlining the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. In addition, it discusses recent advances and highlights unresolved issues. Written by a leading expert in the field, this book provides a valuable overview of the physics of premixed turbulent combustion. Combining simplicity and topicality, it helps researchers orient themselves in the contemporary literature and guides them in selecting the best research tools for their work.

Book Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Combustion

Download or read book Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Combustion written by Andrei Lipatnikov and published by Mdpi AG. This book was released on 2020-07 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulent burning of gaseous fuels is widely used for energy conversion in stationary power generation, e.g., gas turbines, land transportation, piston engines, and aviation, and aero-engine afterburners. Nevertheless, our fundamental understanding of turbulent combustion is still limited, because it is a highly non-linear and multiscale process that involves various local phenomena and thousands (e.g., for gasoline-air mixtures) of chemical reactions between hundreds of species, including several reactions that control emissions from flames. Therefore, there is a strong need for elaborating high fidelity, advanced numerical models, and methods that will catch the governing physical mechanisms of flame-turbulence interaction and, consequently, will make turbulent combustion computations an efficient predictive tool for applied research and, in particular, for development of a new generation of ultra-clean and highly efficient internal combustion engines that will allow society to properly respond to current environmental and efficiency challenges. Accordingly, papers published in this Special Issue (i) contribute to our fundamental understanding of flame-turbulence interaction by analyzing results of unsteady multi-dimensional numerical simulations and (ii) develop and validate high-fidelity models and efficient numerical methods for computational fluid Dynamics research into turbulent combustion in laboratory burners and engines.

Book Numerical Simulation of a Laboratory scale Turbulent V flame

Download or read book Numerical Simulation of a Laboratory scale Turbulent V flame written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We present a three-dimensional, time-dependent simulation of a laboratory-scale rod-stabilized premixed turbulent V-flame. The simulations are performed using an adaptive time-dependent low Mach number model with detailed chemical kinetics and a mixture model for differential species diffusion. The algorithm is based on a second-order projection formulation and does not require an explicit subgrid model for turbulence or turbulence chemistry interaction. Adaptive mesh refinement is used to dynamically resolve the flame and turbulent structures. Here, we briefly discuss the numerical procedure and present detailed comparisons with experimental measurements showing that the computation is able to accurately capture the basic flame morphology and associated mean velocity field. Finally, we discuss key issues that arise in performing these types of simulations and the implications of these issues for using computation to form a bridge between turbulent flame experiments and basic combustion chemistry.
