posted on 2018-09-06, 11:54 authored by Satyanarayana M. Ravikanti Veera VenkataCurrent work focuses on the development and performance evaluation of advanced
flamelet models for turbulent non-premixed and partially premixed combustion in
RANS and large eddy simulation (LES) based modelling. A RANS-based combustion
modelling strategy which has the ability to capture the detailed structure of turbulent
non-premixed flames, including the pollutant NO, and account for the effects of
radiation heat loss and transient evolution of NO, has been developed and
incorporated into the in-house RANS code. The strategy employs an 'enthalpy defect'-based non-adiabatic flamelet model in conjunction with steady or unsteady nonadiabatic
flamelets based NO submodels. [Continues.]
