New flamelet combustion model combining premixed and non-premixed turbulent flames
Flamelet models are now used in many turbulent combustion studies. The reaction zone is described as a collection of laminar flame elements imbedded in the turbulent flow. This approach decouples the detailed modeling of chemistry features of flamelets from the computation of the entire flow field. Most flamelet models consider only premixed or nonpremixed flame elements. But, in some situations, such as ignition of a diffusion flame or combustion in a Diesel engine, premixed and nonpremixed flames may be present in the same flow. The aim of the study is to propose a description, extending the basic ideas of the coherent flame model of Marble and Broadwell (1977) including premixed and nonpremixed flamelets. 19 references.
