Direct numerical simulation of turbulent premixed flames at high Karlovitz numbers: structure and modelling
There has been recent increased interest in premixed flames and in particular for use in gas turbines for power generation. This is a development that follows from increasing demands for high efficiency and low emissions of NOx, which can be achieved by using premixed flames and lean pre-heated mixtures, often close to the lean flammability limit. In combination with high levels of turbulence, whi
