A new methodology to incorporate differential diffusion in CFD simulations of reactive flows
TL;DR: In this paper, a new methodology to take into account differential diffusion in numerical simulations of reactive flows is presented, where the diffusion term in the transport equations of the conserved scalars consists of two parts, one expressing the diffusion between the conserving scalars and the other expressing the feedback from the combustion model.

Journal ArticleDOI
CFD study of fire-induced pressure variation in a mechanically-ventilated air-tight compartment
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of fire-induced pressure rise and ventilation duct flow rate in a mechanically-ventilated air-tight compartment, which represents a passive house.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the Burning Rate of Liquid Fuels in Confined and Mechanically-Ventilated Compartments using a Well-Stirred Reactor Approach
Tarek Beji,Bart Merci +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-zone model based on conservation equations for mass, energy and oxygen concentration is proposed to assess the burning rate of a pool fire in a well-confined and mechanically-ventilated room using a single zone model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of a RG hybrid RANS/LES model to swirling confined turbulent jets
TL;DR: In this paper, a renormalization group (RG) based hybrid RANS/LES model is validated for turbulent swirling confined jets, and the results are compared with the experimental data of Dellenback et al. (1988, Measurements in turbulent swirling flow through an abrupt axisymmetric expansion).
