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.

(Scott Andrew) Northrup and published by National Library of Canada = Bibliothèque nationale du Canada. This book was released on 2004 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A parallel block-based adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) scheme is described and applied to the prediction of the structure of non-premixed axisymmetric methane-air laminar diffusion flames. The parallel solution-adaptive algorithm solves the system of partial-differential equations governing two-dimensional axisymmetric compressible laminar flows for reactive thermally perfect gaseous mixtures. A finite-volume spatial discretization procedure is used to solve the equations on a body-fitted multi-block quadrilateral mesh. Limited piecewise linear solution reconstruction and Riemann solver based flux functions are used to evaluate the inviscid fluxes and a centrally weighted second-order discretization procedure is adopted for determining the viscous fluxes. A flexible block-based hierarchical data structure facilitates mesh adaptation, and enables efficient and scalable implementations of the algorithm on multi-processor architectures via domain decomposition. Numerical results are discussed for a co-flow laminar diffusion flame demonstrating the validity of the parallel AMR approach and the ability of the mesh adaption scheme to resolve fine-scale features of the solution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis topic is located in the domain of numerical simulation of laminar flames. The principal aim of the presented research is the study of numerical techniques for the multidimensional simulation of flames with low computational costs. Present work is divided into three parts: First part is related to the development of a C++ simulation code for 1D laminar premixed flames. In the second part, a new technique to account for differential diffusion effects is proposed, which is based on tabulated chemistry methods. The third part focuses on the analysis of partially premixed flames. A dedicated one-dimensional flame code is discussed for the simulation of complex/detailed chemistry and diffusion processes in premixed laminar flames. This code is written in C++ and is able to use different diffusion models (Fickian, Hirschfelder and Curtiss). The code yields accurate solutions of the major parameters as well as pollutant formation, both in the flame zone as well as downstream in the post-flame region. Results prove the accuracy of the code when compared to experimental data. Following, a new technique is proposed to include differential diffusion effects into flamelet models. This approach is developed in the context of tabulated chemistry methods.The technique is based on correcting the progress-variable of flamelet models. The main feature of the proposed technique is the use of only one progress variable equation (1D manifold) without requiring a second parameter. This correction technique allows including detailed chemistry effects at low-cost in numerical simulation of multidimensional flames. A series of simulations are carried out for various flames. The results are excellently matched with full model solutions/detailed chemistry solutions. The flamelet solutions databases, namely premixed and non-premixed, are further tested for partially premixed flames. This study is based on the investigation of partially premixed flame using single mode flamelet database solutions. For the verification of database solutions, finite rate chemistry simulations are also carried out to solve partially premixed flames. 3D jet coflow simulations are performed for three different level of premixing and results are compared with experimental data. The results show good agreement along with capabilities and limitations of flamelet databases solutions.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capturing the effects of detailed-chemistry on turbulent combustion processes is a central challenge faced by the numerical combustion community. However, the inherent complexity and non-linear nature of both turbulence and chemistry require that combustion models rely heavily on engineering approximations to remain computationally tractable. This thesis proposes a computationally efficient algorithm for modelling detailed-chemistry effects in turbulent diffusion flames and numerically predicting the associated flame properties. The cornerstone of this combustion modelling tool is the use of parallel Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) scheme with the recently proposed Flame Prolongation of Intrinsic low-dimensional manifold (FPI) tabulated-chemistry approach for modelling complex chemistry. The effect of turbulence on the mean chemistry is incorporated using a Presumed Conditional Moment (PCM) approach based on a beta-probability density function (PDF). The two-equation k-w turbulence model is used for modelling the effects of the unresolved turbulence on the mean flow field. The finite-rate of methane-air combustion is represented here by using the GRI-Mech 3.0 scheme. This detailed mechanism is used to build the FPI tables. A state of the art numerical scheme based on a parallel block-based solution-adaptive algorithm has been developed to solve the Favre-averaged Navier-Stokes (FANS) and other governing partial-differential equations using a second-order accurate, fully-coupled finite-volume formulation on body-fitted, multi-block, quadrilateral/hexahedral mesh for two-dimensional and three-dimensional flow geometries, respectively. A standard fourth-order Runge-Kutta time-marching scheme is used for time-accurate temporal discretizations. Numerical predictions of three different diffusion flames configurations are considered in the present work: a laminar counter-flow flame; a laminar co-flow diffusion flame; and a Sydney bluff-body turbulent reacting flow. Comparisons are made between the predicted results of the present FPI scheme and Steady Laminar Flamelet Model (SLFM) approach for diffusion flames. The effects of grid resolution on the predicted overall flame solutions are also assessed. Other non-reacting flows have also been considered to further validate other aspects of the numerical scheme. The present schemes predict results which are in good agreement with published experimental results and reduces the computational cost involved in modelling turbulent diffusion flames significantly, both in terms of storage and processing time.

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.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an opposed-jet diffusion flame experiment, under certain conditions, after the extinction of the diffusion flame, an edge flame can be obtained. It was reported recently in a numerical and an experimental work and is responsible for an interesting transition between two distinct burning flames (multiple solutions). Motivated by our previous numerical results, obtained with simplified kinetics and some recently reported experimental data, we performed direct numerical simulations of this transition to investigate the underlying physical mechanisms. The appearance of an edge flame after the extinction of the diffusion flame, the hysteresis reported in the experiments, and the existence of multiple vigorously burning flames at identical conditions are all captured by our simulations. Our numerical results show that, in the absence of an inert coflow curtain, when the diffusion flame disk is extinguished, an edge flame forms and propagates in the mixing layer. After the formation of this edge flame, even when the applied strain rate is reduced to the initial subcritical value, the diffusion flame disk does not reappear, because the local fluid velocity still exceeds the propagation speed of the edge flame. This hysteresis has significant implications in the common submodel that utilizes the strain rate as a parameter to determine local reignition in flamelet models; it indicates that a subcritical strain rate is not a sufficient condition for the reignition of a diffusion flame. Further investigation of this phenomenon is clearly needed to refine submodels of local extinction and reignition in the flamelet models for turbulent diffusion flames. The opposed-jet configuration provides a convenient platform to analyze edge flames which are stabilized aerodynamically in a two-dimensional geometry, thus making matching two-dimensional direct numerical simulations effective.

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.
