Analysis of the filtered non-premixed turbulent flame
Results related to the filtered non-premixed turbulent flame statistics are presented. Considering non-premixed turbulent combustion modeling in the framework of large eddy simulations (LES), a turbulent flamelet equation is derived based on the filtered governing equations. Using a direct numerical simulation (DNS) data set, the statistical properties of two important parameters, the scalar dissipation and chemical source term, are analyzed in details. Numerical results show that for the scalar dissipation term, the probability density function (PDF) of the magnitude of the mixture fraction gradient changes is strongly dependent on the filter scale, whereas the PDF of the turbulent diffusivity is almost invariant Theoretically from the scalar structure function a scaling law can be expected for the conditional mean of the difference between the filtered and nonfiltered scalars with respect to the filter scale, which is important for estimating the chemical source in the subgrid scale models.
