Flow and Mixing Fields for Transported Scalar PDF Simulations of a Piloted Jet Diffusion Flame
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical simulation results are presented for Delft Flame III, a non-linear first order k-e model, with the transport equation for e based on a modeled enstro-phy transport equation, for cold and reactive flows.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Parameter study in CFD simulations of thermal blockage by a water curtain in a multi-compartment fire configuration
TL;DR: In this article, thermal blockage by a water curtain to prevent heat and smoke spread from a fire compartment to an adjacent one is studied numerically using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code, namely the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS5).

Importance of Buoyancy and Chemistry Modelling in Steady RANS Simulations of Well-Ventilated Tunnel Fires
Karim Van Maele,Bart Merci +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical CFD simulation results for well-ventilated fires in horizontal tunnels are presented for the prediction of critical ventilation velocity, an important design parameter for tunnels that should be correctly predicted by numerical simulations.
