Modeling thermal radiation in combustion environments can be extremely challenging for
two main reasons. First, the radiative transfer equation (RTE), which is the cornerstone of …

Ultrafine and highly light absorbing soot particles have been known to be harmful to human
health and a major climate forcer. Understanding the mechanisms of soot formation and …

Radiative heat transfer (RHT) is often the dominant mode of heat transfer in flames, fires,
and combustion systems and affects significantly temperature distributions directly and …

The present study aims to quantify individual contributions to turbulence-radiation interaction
(TRI) in LES of large methanol pool fires with diameters ranging from 1m to 4m. These …

Designing efficient and clean combustion devices to reduce soot formation in practical
applications is a major concern nowadays. This could be achieved by performing predictive …

The main objective of this work is to analyze the effects of gas radiative property models on
the radiative outputs and flame structure in a 1 m diameter methanol pool fire. Large Eddy …

This article reports flamelet/transported PDF (TPDF) simulations of the well-documented
ethylene/air turbulent non-premixed jet flame investigated experimentally at Sandia. The …

Abstract The Monte-Carlo simulation of radiative heat transfer is known to be very accurate.
Its convergence can be significantly improved using Randomized Quasi-Monte-Carlo …

This paper proposes an improved Monte Carlo method (IMCM) for the radiative heat transfer
solution in semitransparent media with BRDF surface for the first time. This method not only …

MILD combustion has a wide potential in enhancing thermal efficiency with nearly zero
emissions. It has no visible flame since the radiation from the reacting zones is attenuated …
