Abstract: In order to reduce the dimensions of the combustor, swirl stabilized flames are used in heavy duty gas turbines. In our recent investigation of the swirling flow at a single heavy duty gas ...

Abstract: A fundamental study has been performed on the upstream flame propagation of a turbulent kerosene flame, stabilized in a confined stagnation flow at atmospheric pressure. Besides temperature and ...

Abstract: The present article introduces a new method to solve the radiative transfer equation (RTE). First, a finite element discretization of the solid angle dependence is derived, wherein the coefficients ...

Abstract: Polydisperse sprays in complex three-dimensional flow systems are important in many technical applications. Numerical descriptions of sprays are used to achieve a fast and accurate prediction of ...

Abstract: The development of low-emission aero-engine combustors strongly depends on the availability of accurate and efficient numerical models. The prediction of the interaction between two-phase flow and ...
