This work reviews the state of the art of the main soot modeling approaches used in
turbulent diffusion flames. Accordingly, after a short introduction about the subject addressed …

The objective of this paper is to present a finite volume method for the discretisation of the
population balance equation with coagulation, growth and nucleation that combines:(a) …

In the present paper, we present a method for solving the population balance equation
(PBE) with the complete range of kinetic processes included: namely aggregation …

Soot particle dynamics, including particle size distributions (PSDs) and related statistics, are
of increasing practical significance due to evolving regulatory demands. The combination of …

This study examines the impact of turbulence on particle-forming flames via three-
dimensional direct numerical simulations. The simulations employ the finite rate chemistry …

A joint volume-surface formalism of the Multi-Moment Sectional Method (MMSM) is
developed to describe the evolution of soot size distribution in turbulent reacting flows. The …

Carbon black and soot are synthesized by gas-phase pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. Inception,
surface growth, and coagulation control process yield and agglomerate morphology. Here …

One of the major concerns in high pressure combustion is its high soot yield. An exact and
comprehensive mechanism behind this phenomenon, from a chemical kinetics perspective …

A new and efficient sectional method is developed and presented in this work. This new
method, namely hybrid sectional moment projection method, seeks to combine the …

In this study, two series of pressurized turbulent jet sooting flames at 1, 3, and 5 bar with
either fixed jet velocity or fixed Reynolds number are simulated to study the pressure effects …
