Accurate modeling of mixing in the transported probability density function (PDF) method
remains a great challenge, especially for turbulent premixed combustion under extreme …

A Local Extinction approach for treating chemical reaction kinetics within the Eddy
Dissipation Concept (EDC) has been examined. It applies a database of pre-calculated …

Probability Density Function (PDF) methods in combination with Large Eddy Simulations
(LES) are a powerful tool for studying turbulent reacting flow problems and we are interested …

A spray flamelet/progress variable approach is developed for use in spray combustion with
partly pre-vaporised liquid fuel, where a laminar spray flamelet library accounts for …

Comprehensive studies are performed to evaluate the effect of molecular transport on the
probability density function (PDF) modeling of turbulent non-premixed flames. The widely …

Lagrangian PDF investigations are performed of the Sandia piloted flame E and the Cabra
H2/N2 lifted flame to help develop a deeper understanding of local extinction, re-ignition and …

This paper deals with the application of thermochemical Lagrangian MDF (mass density
function) methods for compressible sub-and supersonic RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier …

A numerical investigation is carried out to study the ignition of a hydrogen/air mixture by a
hot turbulent jet. A stand-alone probability density function method is used to model the …

The transported probability density function (PDF) method is an attractive model for the
closure of turbulent mixing and turbulent reactive flows. The transported PDF method suffers …
