Study of Radiative Heat Transfer and Flow Physics from Medium-scale Methanol Pool Fire Simulations [Slides]
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
Analysis of methanol pool fire conducted as part of validation study for SIERRA/Fuego. Radiation model was effectively calibrated by modifying radiation model parameters for methanol. Computing integrated buoyancy flux, entrainment rate, and turbulent kinetic energy allowed for evaluation of less typical quantities in this validation study. Quantities were compared with experimental data or correlations and generally showed agreement. TKE needed fine mesh to be computed accurately. Predicted flame height less sensitive to variations in mixture fraction than temperature. Mixture fraction is a preferable threshold variable for this application.
