A Radiative Flamelet Combustion Model for Turbulent, Premixed Methane-Air Flames

The effect of radiation heat loss has been incorporated into a stretched laminar flamelet model of turbulent premixed flames using the enthalpy defect approach, and the method applied to the simulation of a number of stoichiometric methane-air jet flames. Comparison of predictions with available data on flames burning in the flamelet regime demonstrate that the model successfully captures the major features of these flames, in terms of flame...
