| Abstract | Multiple, interacting flames in DLE systems can increase flame surface area and promote mixing of hot-products into the reactants — leading to an efficient usage of combustion volume and improved injector performance. An optically-accessible, confined, linear array of five swirl nozzles was recently built [1] to investigate flame dynamics and validate computational strategies. The present work focuses on modeling a dataset representative of lean gas turbine conditions, using a flamelet approach. A preheated (500K), premixed fuel-air mixture (ϕ = 0.55, Tflame = 1732K) at atmospheric pressure was injected through the swirlers at 40 m/s into a rectangular chamber. High-speed laser measurements of the flow (3 component velocity field from 10 kHz stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (S-PIV)) and flame (planar laser induced fluorescence of the hydroxyl radical (OH-PLIF)) were used for model validation. The objectives of this work: (1) Evaluate a flamelet-progress variable method based on flamelet-generated manifolds (FGM) and examine its sensitivity to models for micro (scalar dissipation) and large scale mixing (anisotropic RANS vs LES) and (2) Obtain insight into the velocity field and flame stabilization in an interacting system. Computations indicate that high-swirl nozzles produce bluff-body flames anchored to shear-layer vortices due to an arrested flow expansion. The anisotropic RANS turbulence model under-predicts the recirculation zone strength but predicts flow development and Reynolds stress profiles fairly well. While LES is more accurate overall, both models over-predict flow fluctuations in the transitional flow at the end of the recirculation bubble where flow becomes axially positive. The flamelet approach predicts the flame-shape and length correctly but over-predicts the reaction rate in-between swirlers. The effect of including a reactive SDR model is to significantly increase flame-flow interaction (higher scalar variance) but does not appear to influence the overall shape or location of the flame. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
