Turbulent Premixed Combustion in SI Engine

Simulation of Lean Premixed Turbulent Combustion

There is considerable technological interest in developing new fuel-flexible combustion systems that can burn fuels such as hydrogen or syngas. Lean premixed systems have the potential to burn these types of fuels with high efficiency and low NOx emissions due to reduced burnt gas temperatures. Although traditional scientific approaches based on theory and laboratory experiment have played esse...

Numerical Simulation of Premixed Turbulent Methane Combustion

In this paper we study turbulent premixed methane flames with swirl using three-dimensional numerical simulation. The simulations are performed using an adaptive time-dependent low Mach number combustion algorithm based on a second-order projection formulation that conserves both species mass and total enthalpy. The species and enthalpy equations are treated using an operator-split approach tha...

Lagrangian formulation of turbulent premixed combustion.

The lagrangian point of view is adopted to study turbulent premixed combustion. The evolution of the volume fraction of combustion products is established by the Reynolds transport theorem. It emerges that the burned-mass fraction is led by the turbulent particle motion, by the flame front velocity, and by the mean curvature of the flame front. A physical requirement connecting particle turbule...

Subgrid Combustion Modeling for Premixed Turbulent Reacting Flows *

Two combustion models for turbulent premixed combustion in the flamelet regime are developed for unsteady simulations. The first model is a convensional G equation flamelet model and the main issues discussed are the subgrid closure. The second model is based on the Linear-Eddy Model. Both models are used in simulation of turbulent stagnation point flames. The heat release and turbulence intens...
