This paper describes Large Eddy Simulations of a turbulent premixed flame (the VOLVO rig) comparing Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) with globally reduced chemistry for propane-air combustion, a dynamic Thickened Flame (TFLES) model with the usual non-dynamic TFLES model and a high-order Taylor Galerkin numerical scheme with a low-order Lax-Wendroff scheme. Comparisons with experimental data are presented for a stable case in terms of velocity and temperature fields. They show that going from two-step to ARC chemistry changes the flame stabilization zone. Compared to the usual non-dynamic TFLES model, the dynamic formulation allows to perform a parameter-free simulation. Finally, the order of accuracy of the numerical method is also found to play an important role. As a result, the high-order numerical method combined with the ARC chemistry and the dynamic TFLES model provides the best comparison with the experimental data. Since the VOLVO data base is used in various benchmarking exercises, this paper suggests that these three elements (precise chemistry description, dynamic parameter free turbulent combustion model and high-order numerical methods) play important roles and must be considered carefully in any LES approach.
