Book Mathematical and Numerical Modeling of Turbulent Reactive Flows Using a Hybrid LES PDF Methodology

Download or read book Mathematical and Numerical Modeling of Turbulent Reactive Flows Using a Hybrid LES PDF Methodology written by João Marcelo Vedovoto and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is devoted to the development and implementation of a computational framework to perform numerical simulations of low Mach number turbulent reactive flows. The numerical algorithm designed for solving the transport equations relies on a fully implicit predictor-corrector integration scheme. A physically consistent constraint is retained to ensure that the velocity field is solved correctly, and the numerical solver is extensively verified using the Method of Manufactured Solutions (MMS) in both incompressible and variable-density situations. The final computational model relies on a hybrid Large Eddy Simulation / transported Probability Density Function (LES-PDF) framework. Two different turbulence closures are implemented to represent the residual stresses: the classical and the dynamic Smagorinsky models. The specification of realistic turbulent inflow boundary conditions is also addressed in details, and three distinct methodologies are implemented. The crucial importance of this issue with respect to both inert and reactive high fidelity numerical simulations is unambiguously assessed. The influence of residual sub-grid scale scalar fluctuations on the filtered chemical reaction rate is taken into account within the Lagrangian PDF framework. The corresponding PDF model makes use of a Monte Carlo technique: Stochastic Differential Equations (SDE) equivalent to the Fokker-Planck equations are solved for the progress variable of chemical reactions. With the objective of performing LES of turbulent reactive flows in complex geometries, the use of distributed computing is mandatory, and the retained domain decomposition algorithm displays very satisfactory levels of speed-up and efficiency. Finally, the capabilities of the resulting computational model are illustrated on two distinct experimental test cases: the first is a two-dimensional highly turbulent premixed flame established between two streams of fresh reactants and hot burnt gases which is stabilized in a square cross section channel flow. The second is an unconfined high velocity turbulent jet of premixed reactants stabilized by a large co-flowing stream of burned products.

Book Second Moment Closure Based Hybrid LES RANS Methods for Application in Attached and Separate Turbulent Flows

Download or read book Second Moment Closure Based Hybrid LES RANS Methods for Application in Attached and Separate Turbulent Flows written by Rajib Roy and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical modeling of turbulent flows needs to be accurate yet fast and cost effective for practical applications. For flows with boundary layer separation the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method provides accurate results but the computational cost increases fast with the Reynolds number due to the near wall resolution requirement. To alleviate the cost burden, a statistical (RANS) method can be incorporated in a LES method to build a hybrid model, which applies RANS in the near wall attached flow region (to reduce cost) and LES in the separated flow region (to increase accuracy). In this work, a novel second-moment closure based hybrid RANS-LES model is used to improve the overall accuracy. The new hybrid model coefficients are calibrated in a canonical attached flow and the model is then applied in several other attached and separated turbulent flow cases to evaluate the model performance.Y

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.
