Given the need to develop zero-carbon combustors for power and aircraft engine applications, $S_d$ of a turbulent premixed flame, especially for H$_2$-air, is of immediate interest. The present study investigates 3D DNS cases of premixed…
Large-eddy simulations (LES) of a planar turbulent lean hydrogen-air jet flame at Re = 11000 are performed using a tabulated flamelet model based on mixture-averaged diffusion that incorporates detailed transport, including differential and…
In the present study, soot formation in the turbulent lifted diffusion flame, consisting of ethylene-air is numerically investigated using three different soot modeling approaches and is comprehensively reported. For turbulence-chemistry…
Recent studies of rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection at high rotation rates and strong thermal forcing have shown a significant discrepancy in total heat transport between experiments on a confined cylindrical domain on the one hand and…
In the current study, the influence of turbulent mixing and local reaction rates on deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) was investigated using a state-of-the-art large eddy simulation (LES) strategy. Specifically, detonation…
Premixed flames propagating within small channels show complex combustion phenomena that differ from flame propagation at conventional scales. Available experimental and numerical studies have documented stationary/non-stationary and/or…
Buffer gas cooling, one of the most relevant direct cooling techniques for cooling molecules, relies on dissipating the energy of the molecule via collisions with a buffer gas. The cooling efficiency hinges on the molecule-atom scattering…
Numerical modeling of turbulent spray combustion provides a promising tool for advanced engine design. In spray flames, the droplet evaporation not only reduces the ambient gas temperature, but also influences flame structure by generating…
Dynamic mode decomposition method is deployed to investigate the heat transfer mechanism in a compressible turbulent shear layer and shockwave. To this end, highly resolved Large Eddy Simulations are performed to explore the effect of wall…
The present paper seeks to determine the mechanism of flame acceleration and transition to detonation when a turbulent flame preceded by a shock interacts with a single obstruction in its path, taken as a cylindrical obstacle or a wall in…
The purpose of this work is to analyze the flow due to a potential point vortex pair in the vicinity of a symmetry line (or "wall"), in order to understand why the presence of the wall, even far from the vortices, accelerates fluid mixing…
This work presents a numerical investigation of soot formation in the Cambridge lab-scale gas turbine combustor. Large-eddy simulations (LES) of a swirl-stabilized ethylene flame are performed using the flamelet generated manifold method…
Supersonic lean premixed hydrogen/air combustion stabilised by a cavity-flame holder within a model scramjet, characterized by a Mach 1.5 inflow at 1000 K and 50 kPa, is investigated via direct numerical simulation. By separately…
This study examines the dynamics of vortical interactions and their implications for mitigating thermoacoustic instability in a turbulent combustor. The regions of intense vortical interactions are identified as vortical communities in the…
Influences of reaction zone thickening and local extinctions on the burning rate of extremely turbulent hydrogen-enriched methane-air flames are investigated using simultaneous planar laser-induced fluorescence of formaldehyde molecule and…
A new flamelet model is developed for sub-grid modeling and coupled with the resolved flow for turbulent combustion. The model differs from current models in critical ways. (i) Non-premixed flames, premixed flames, or multi-branched flame…
The motion of a quantized vortex is intimately connected with its microscopic structure and the elementary excitations of the surrounding fluid. In this work, we investigate the two-dimensional motion of a single vortex orbiting a pinned…
A new rotational flamelet model with inward swirling flow through a stretched vortex tube is developed for sub-grid modeling to be coupled with the resolved flow for turbulent combustion. The model has critical new features compared to…
In previous studies, we examined turbulence-flame interactions in carbon-burning thermonuclear flames in Type Ia supernovae. In this study, we consider turbulence-flame interactions in the trailing oxygen flames. The two aims of the paper…
A novel jet-stirred combustion chamber is designed to study turbulent premixed flames. In the new approach, multiple impinging turbulent jets are used to stir the mixture. It is well known that pair of counterflowing turbulent jets produces…
