Abstract
The development of clean, sustainable energy systems is one of the grand challenges of our time. Despite the rise of renewable energy systems, most projections indicate that combustion-based systems will remain the predominant source for energy for the next decades. In order to satisfy high fuel efficiency and low emission, combustion systems are being driven closer to the bleeding edge of technology.
The talk has two parts. In the first part, a modelling of unsteady turbulent jet is presented. Direct numerical simulation (DNS) on a stopping jet is performed, and the temporal and spatial development of the unsteady jet is analysed. In the second part, the flamelet based combustion modelling (G-equation) is introduced and utilized to understand the turbulent Markstein length from the oscillating flame holder flame.
