LES of a swirl-stabilized kerosene spray flame with a multi-component vaporization model and detailed chemistry

Due to the introduction of alternative aviation fuels, new methods and models are necessary which have the capability to predict the performance of combustors dependent on the fuel composition. Towards this target, a multi-component vaporization model is coupled to a direct, detailed chemistry solver in the context of Eulerian–Lagrangian LES. By means of the computational platform, a lab-scale, swirl-stabilized spray flame is computed. The...
