Recent developments in numerical schemes, turbulent combustion models and the regular
increase of computing power allow Large Eddy Simulation (LES) to be applied to real …

Combustion is an essential process for generating propulsion for most existing aircraft. The
combustion processes, such as ignition, flame propagation, and flame stability, are …

Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) and Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) are applied to the
analysis of a swirl burner operated with a lean methane–air mixture and experimentally …

This paper reviews the current state of knowledge on the initiation of a flame in a spray
through the action of a spark or through local deposition of heat, and the subsequent flame …

A unified modelling framework for all unresolved terms in the filtered progress variable
transport equation in large-eddy simulations of turbulent premixed flames is proposed, using …

Detailed chemistry tabulations built from canonical combustion problems, such as premixed
or diffusion flamelets, have been the subject of multiple studies. Chemical look-up table …

A model that synthesizes previous knowledge from experiments and simulations on spark
ignition of gas and liquid-fuelled non-premixed recirculating flames has been developed …

Driven by pollutant emissions stringent regulations, engines manufacturers tend to reduce
the number of injectors and rely on lean combustion which impacts the light-around phase of …

Ignition in an aircraft gas turbine combustion chamber is simulated using Large Eddy
Simulation (LES) in conjunction with the filtered probability density function (pdf) equation …

The ignition behaviour of a multiple-burner annular combustion chamber consisting of 12 or
18 bluff-body premixed methane-air swirl burners was investigated experimentally. The …
