The objective of the present work is to investigate the modeling of a two-phase reactive flow concerning a diesel oil/air flame in order to predict the turbulent flow behavior and temperature distribution in a three dimensional jet-stabilized model combustion chamber. A Finite Volume staggered grid approach is adopted to solve the governing equations. The second-order upwind scheme is applied for the space derivatives of the advection terms in all transport equations. An Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation is used for the two-phase (gas-droplet) flow. The presumed PDF is taken on to model the heat release and the Realizable k-epsilon turbulence model is applied for the flow predictions. The thermal radiation model for the gas-phase is based on the Discrete Ordinates Method, adopting its S-4 approximation. Comparisons of present numerical predictions with available experimental data and also with another numerical solution employing different combustion and turbulence models reveal that the Realizable k-epsilon model predicts jet flow behavior more accurately than the standard k-epsilon model. Also, the presumed PDF model predicts the temperature distribution better than the eddy dissipation model, especially in the near wall region. Negligence of thermal radiation mode results in a failure to predict the concentration of No species. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
