  1. 1. Numerical study of flame dynamics

    Author : Arkady Petchenko; Vitaly Bychkov; Leonid Kagan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; combustion; Direct Numerical Simulation DNS ; turbulence; flame-vortex interaction; flame acceleration; flame-acoustic interaction; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Modern industrial society is based on combustion with ever increasing standards on the efficiency of burning. One of the main combustion characteristics is the burning rate, which is influenced by intrinsic flame instabilities, external turbulence and flame interaction with walls of combustor and sound waves.
