Description
Springer Radiative Heat Transfer in Turbulent Combustion Systems Theory and Applications 2016 Edition by Michael F. Modest, Daniel C. Haworth
This introduction reviews why combustion and radiation are important, as well as the technical challenges posed by radiation. Emphasis is on interactions among turbulence, chemistry and radiation (turbulence-chemistry-radiation interactions - TCRI) in Reynolds-averaged and large-eddy simulations. Subsequent chapters cover: chemically reacting turbulent flows; radiation properties, Reynolds transport equation (RTE) solution methods, and TCRI; radiation effects in laminar flames; TCRI in turbulent flames; and high-pressure combustion systems. This Brief presents integrated approach that includes radiation at the outset, rather than as an afterthought. It stands as the most recent developments in physical modeling, numerical algorithms, and applications collected in one monograph. Table of contents : - Introduction.- Chemically Reacting Turbulent Flows.- Radiation Properties, RTE Solvers, and TRI Models.- Radiation Effects in Laminar Flames.- Turbulence/Chemistry/Radiation Interactions in Atmospheric Pressure Turbulent Flames.- High-Pressure Combustion Systems.- Summary, Conclusions and Future Prospects.
