Large-eddy simulation of turbulent combustion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the fundamental differences between Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and LES combustion models for non-premixed and premixed turbulent combustion, identify some of the open questions and modeling issues for LES, and provide future perspectives.

Plasma-assisted ignition and combustion

TL;DR: The use of a thermal equilibrium plasma for combustion control dates back more than a hundred years to the advent of internal combustion (IC) engines and spark ignition systems and the same principles are still applied today to achieve high efficiency in various applications as mentioned in this paper.
