Understanding and being able to predict soot formation in practical configurations burning complex liquid fuel is essential for the design of engines meeting present and future environmental requirements. The prediction of soot formation with numerical simulations has been mostly limited to academic configurations burning light gaseous fuel. This is explained by the numerical cost of (i) the fuel oxidation chemistry including soot precursors like Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), and (ii) the modeling of two dispersed phases, i.e., the liquid fuel spray and the soot particles. In this work, an Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) for real fuels is proposed to allow a direct integration of accurate combustion chemistry including PAH in the compressible LES solver AVBP. The ARC model is coupled with a Lagrangian particle tracking approach for both the fuel droplets and the soot, including for the latter the description of the complex physical and chemical processes driving the particle evolution. Validation is first performed in a one-dimensional ethylene/air flame configuration, experimentally studied in the literature at several operating points. The numerical profiles of both the soot volume fraction and the soot diameter are in good agreement with measurements. This allows to apply the LES methodology to the sooting swirled turbulent liquid JetA-1/air combustor measured at UTIAS. Very satisfying predictions for both the flow dynamics and the soot production are obtained. The analysis of the results brings valuable new insights on the interaction between fuel droplets, turbulent combustion, PAH and soot evolution in such complex flames.}}

JetA-1 is composed of n-dodecane, methyl-cyclohexane and xylene each corresponding to the major hydrocarbon families found in real fuel. At-J is a synthetic drop in fuel composed of only branched chain alkanes, iso-octane, iso-dodecane and iso-hexadecane. Analytically Reduced Chemistry and multicomponent spray evaporation model coupled to the dynamic thickened flame turbulent combustion model are employed to understand the processes involved in turbulent spray flames in the LOTAR configuration. The objectives are to predict and understand the potential effects of staged vaporisation and consumption of the fuel components, and their impact on the spray flame structures. Simulations confirm the role of preferential evaporation in establishing and stabilising the reaction zone. JetA-1 evaporation zones extend deep into the rich burnt gasses resulting in a combustion regime with the possibility of droplet clusters burning individually. At-J which is more volatile, leads to complete combustion with the majority occurring due to the premixed lean reactions of the smaller pyrolysed components. The need to further include models capable of identifying and handling combustion regimes encountered in such spray flames is hence highlighted. This work is intended as a starting point for improving multicomponent spray modelling and requires additional experimental data for validation.}}

This restriction poses severe challenge in carrying out large eddy simulation (LES) of reactive and non-reactive flows, where the grid resolution is fine. The challenge of restricted time step is further augmented when dealing with large computational domains that pose a wide disparity in the system time scales. In this study, a numerical methodology is presented based on local time stepping in an overset grid framework. The attainable speedup is found to be a function of the ratio of time steps used in the sub-domains and the ratio of the number of computational degrees of freedom. The method is analyzed using global spectral analysis (GSA) and shows excellent agreement in solution accuracy with the conventional explicit time integration based solver. The impact of local time stepping on the order of accuracy and global conservation properties are also presented. This method is then applied to simulate three flow test cases to demonstrate the ability of the method to reproduce the first and second-order turbulent statistics at reduced computational time.}, pdf = {https://cerfacs.fr/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/CFD_Nadakkal_JCP_AR_CFD_22_106.pdf}}

Second, the comparison of numerical fully transient ignition sequences with experimental data shows that LES recovers the inter-injector spray propagation features found in the experiment such as flame propagation modes from radial to progressively arc-like, and total ignition time delay.

A discrete multicomponent model for spray vaporization is used along with an analytically reduced chemistry for computing the gas phase reactions.

In the first, the flame penetrates the injection unit, while in the second, the flame lifts off after a substantial delay before stabilizing at a distance from the injector. This transient phenomenon is investigated using Large Eddy Simulations based on an Euler–Lagrange description of the liquid spray, an energy deposition model to mimic ignition, and the thickened flame combustion model. It is shown that the initial penetration of the flame in the injector unit is linked with the positive pressure excursion induced by the rapid volumetric expansion of burnt gases. This sudden expansion is itself due to the fast increase in heat release rate that occurs during the initiation of the process. The corresponding positive and negative pressure disturbances induce a rapid reduction of the mass flow rate through the injector, followed by an acceleration of the flow and a return to the nominal value. It is also shown that the flame root disappears after another delay, which results in the flame edge lifting and stabilization at a distance from the injector exhaust corresponding to steady operation of the device. The relatively long delay time before this liftoff takes place is found to correspond to the residence time of the cooled burnt gases in the vicinity of the chamber walls, which are ultimately entrained by the internal recirculation zone and quench the lower flame foot.Combustion, Combustion chambers, Ejectors, Evaporation, Flames, Heat, Ignition, Temperature, Flow (Dynamics), Large eddy simulation, Gases, Pressure, Fuels, Drops, Sprays}, keywords = {Combustion, Combustion chambers, Ejectors, Evaporation, Flames, Heat, Ignition, Temperature, Flow (Dynamics), Large eddy simulation, Gases, Pressure, Fuels, Drops, Sprays}, url = {https://asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/gasturbinespower/article-abstract/143/2/021015/1092055/Large-Eddy-Simulation-of-Flame-Dynamics-During-the?redirectedFrom=fulltext}}

In this framework the present work proposes the study of an academic liquid fueled combustor sensitive to thermoacoustic instabilities, simulated via high-fidelity Large Eddy Simulations. The experimental setup addressed is SICCA-spray from EM2C laboratory featuring both stable and unstable flames depending on the combustion chamber length. The proposed analysis, based on the Euler-Lagrange modeling approach, studies the impact of the spray injection angle θ on both the stable flame and the triggering of the longitudinal combustor acoustic mode when using a longer quartz tube. For the liquid injection modeling, the FIM-UR semi-empirical model is adopted with three different θ values: θ = 35◦, 45◦ and 60◦. In stable conditions, the spray angle is proven to have a negligible impact on the flame anchoring point, however, the mean flame length and fuel distribution are found to be slightly modified by the velocity at which droplets enter the combustion chamber. For the thermoacoustically unstable conditions, two well-established stable limit cycles with the same frequency and similar amplitudes are obtained when fuel is injected at θ = 45◦ and 60◦. Contrarily, the system stabilizes when θ = 35◦ pointing to the importance of the dynamics of the liquid film layer formed inside the injector for this setup. Likewise, this liquid film layer dynamics and its modeling appear critical as already suggested by previous studies on the same configuration. The detailed analysis of the thermoacoustically unstable different predictions is then performed through the investigation of the spatial fields of the local Rayleigh index obtained following the novel extension in the frequency domain of the Rayleigh criterion complemented by the application of Dynamic Mode Decomposition. It confirms that the injection angle of the liquid spray has a significant effect on the thermoacoustic response of the system. Indeed the influence of θ on the dynamics of the liquid fuel when entering the combustion chamber is proven to have an impact on the synchronization mechanism governing the liquid phase with respect to acoustics sustaining the observed limit cycles. More specifically, couplings at the liquid phase level are evidenced by introducing two novel indices correlating the fluctuations of liquid fuel volume fraction and evaporation rate with pressure.}, keywords = {Thermoacoustic instabilities, Turbulent spray flames, Large Eddy Simulations, Spray angle sensitivity, Eulerian-Lagrangian approach}}

This approach relies solely on geometric considerations and unlike previous thickening methods does not need any parameterization nor preliminary calibration. The detection process is based on the analysis of the curvature of a test function, associating a bell-curve shape to a flame front. Once the front is located, the front thickness is also evaluated from the test function, allowing (1) a thickening restricted to under-resolved flame regions, (2) a self-adapting thickening of the front. The thickening process is finally applied to the detected front, over a normal-to-the-flame distance, using a Lagrangian point-localization algorithm. The method was developed and implemented in an unstructured and massively parallel environment and is therefore directly usable for the computation of complex configurations. Three test cases are presented to validate the methodology, ranging from a one-dimensional laminar premixed flame to the VOLVO turbulent premixed flame.}, keywords = {COMBUSTION}}

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is used to simulate the turbulent flow in a wall-resolved periodic channel configuration, heated via a uniform heat flux at the wall. In order to enhance the heat exchange with the flow, the inner surface of the channel features rounded rib. This however increases the pressure loss, and an optimum shape of the rib is to be found. The rib pitch and height as well as rib discontinuities are the geometrical parameters to optimize, allowing a wide variety of inner wall roughness. To limit the number of LES, the optimization procedure is based on a surrogate model constructed from Gaussian Process Regression and adaptive resampling with the Efficient Global Optimization (EGO) method [1]. The optimization consists in the maximization of the cost function proposed by Webb and Eckert [2], which aims at maximizing the heat transfer efficiency for similar pumping power. Results show that a rib induced swirling motion in the near wall region significantly decreases the heat transfer efficiency, leading to an optimum roughness shape featuring large and multiple discontinuities. Moreover, the efficiency of helically dimpled tubes is also found sensitive to the shape of the transitions between the discontinuous parts of the rib. Smoother transitions lead to lower pressure loss but also to lower heat transfer due to smaller recirculation zones.}, keywords = {Heat exchanger, Geometrical design, Optimization, LES, Ribbed tube, Turbulent channel flow}, url = {http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0017931019348495}}

The configuration used for this work is the experimental setup SICCA-spray available at EM2C laboratory in Paris. First steady spray flame measurements are used to validate the LES Euler-Lagrange approach.

In particular the occurrence of quenching events after the successful creation of a kernel flame is a key mechanism for the outcome of the sequence. A first analysis leads to a classification of ignition/extinction scenarios, based on similar time evolutions and trajectories of the flame kernel. It is found that this classification is much dependent on the sparking location.

Although both methods can accurately predict global quantities such as laminar flame speed and burnt gas composition, they have significant limitations. In particular, neither are able to directly and adequately describe the complexity of pollutant chemistry. In the context of reducing harmful emissions of the next generation of aeronautical combustors, however, including these needed additional kinetic details in combustion simulations is becoming essential. Direct integration of detailed chemistry in accurate turbulent combustion models is not a viable option in the foreseeable future, because of excessive computational demands and numerical stiffness. In this context, Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) represents an attractive compromise between accuracy and effic iency, and is already employed in relatively complex Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) and Large Eddy Simulations (LES). ARCs are knowledge-based compact mechanisms retaining only the most relevant kinetic information as extracted directly, and without fitting, from detailed chemical models using specialized reduction techniques (important species identification through graph search, lumping of species with similar features, short-living species identification, etc.). In recent years, several multi-step efficient and automated reduction tools have been developed, enabling the easy generation of ARCs with minimum input and knowledge from the user. The main objective of this paper is to present a review of ARCs for fuels ranging from methane to aviation kerosene surrogates, recently derived with such a multi-step automated reduction tool: YARC. Information about the applicability and range of validity of each derived mechanism are given, along with further references. Each on e was specifically derived to be convenient to use in CFD; in particular, the stiffness was regarded as a key factor and the final number of transported species never exceeds thirty. In a final section, the great potential of the methodology is illustrated in a multi-phase, reactive LES application where the fuel is a real multi-component transportation fuel. To that end, an ARC based on a Jet A described by the novel Hybrid Chemistry (HyChem) approach is coupled with the Dynamically Thickened Flame LES (DTFLES) model and directly integrated into the LES solver AVBP. A Lagrangian spray description is used. Results are compared to experimental data in terms of temperature and major species (CO 2 , H 2 O, CO, NO) mass fractions, leading to very satisfying results.}, keywords = {Analytically Reduced Chemistry, database , CFD applications}}

This approach allows a detailed analysis of the flame structure and pollutant formation. The Analytically Reduced Chemistries (ARCs) are obtained using Directed Relation Graph method with Error Propagation (DRGEP) and Quasi-Steady-State (QSS) approximation. Two ARCs containing both 22 species are derived for methane–air oxidation, from GRI 2.11 and GRI 3.0 detailed mechanisms. They correctly predict fuel consumption speed, as well as NO and CO concentrations in laminar premixed and non-premixed flames at atmospheric conditions. It is found that the NO production strongly depends on the detailed mechanism, being significantly higher with GRI 3.0 in rich premixed flames and in diffusion flames. The two ARCs are then used in highly-resolved LES of the Sandia flame D. The numerical results are in very good agreement with the experiment in terms of aerodynamics, mixture fraction and temperature profiles. The CO concentration is also well predicted with the two ARCs. For NO, a satisfactory agreement with the measurements is obtained with the ARC based on GRI 2.11, while a significant over-prediction is obtained with the GRI 3.0-based ARC, consistently with the differences observed in laminar cases between the two GRI versions. A detailed investigation of the flame structure including a comparison with reference laminar flames reveals that the flame structure is essentially non-premixed. The presence of the pilot jet alters the mixing process, leading to a flame structure that falls between two extreme non-premixed combustion regimes corresponding to the interaction of the rich central jet with either the hot gases from the pilot, or the coflow of fresh air. The associated laminar diffusion flamelets indicate that this particular flame structure influences the formation of pollutants, with a strong impact on CO production.}, keywords = {Pollutant prediction, Reduced chemistr, Large Eddy Simulation}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0010218017303504}}

To demonstrate the added value of the ARC methodology for the prediction of flame structures in various combustion regimes, including formation of intermediate species and pollutants, it is compared to a standard tabulation method (FPI). Comparisons with available measurements show an overall good agreement with both chemistry approaches, for the velocity and temperature fields. However, the flame structure is shown to be much improved by the inclusion of explicitly resolved chemistry with ARC. In particular, the ability of ARC to respond to strain and curvature, and to intrinsically contain CO/O2 chemistry greatly influences the flame shape and position, as well as important species production and consumption throughout the combustion chamber. Additionally, since both chemistry descriptions are able to account for intermediate species such as OH and C2H2, soot formation is also investigated using a two-equations empirical soot model with C2H2 as the sole precursor. It is found that, in the present configuration, this precursor is strongly impacted by differential diffusion and partial premixing, not included in the FPI approach. This leads to a strong under-prediction of soot levels by about one order of magnitude with FPI, while ARC recovers the correct measured soot concentrations.}, keywords = {Large Eddy Simulation, Chemical kinetics, Reduced chemistry, Gas Turbines, Soot}}

However, further improvements of the predictive capability of LES is required especially for predictions of pollutant formation. In general, the exact description of real fuel combustion requires to take into account thousands of unique chemical species involved in complex and highly non-linear chemical reaction mechanisms, and the direct integration of such chemistry in LES is not a viable path because of excessive computational demands and numerical stiffness. Modeling of real aeronautical transportation fuel is further complicated by the fact that kerosenes are complex blends of a large number of hydrocarbon compounds and their exact composition is very difficult to determine. In this work, we propose a new framework relying upon the Hybrid Chemistry (HyChem) approach and Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) to allow a direct integration of real fuel chemistry in the compressible LES solver AVBP. The HyChem-ARC model is coupled with the Dynamically Thickened Flame LES model (DTFLES) and a Lagrangian description of the spray to investigate the turbulent two-phase flow flame in a lean direct injection combustor, fueled with Jet-A. The LES results are compared to experimental data in terms of gas velocity, temperature and species (CO2, H2O, CO, NO) mass fractions. It is found that the proposed methodology leads to very satisfying predictions of both the flow dynamics and the NOx levels. Additionally, the refined level of chemistry description enables to gain valuable insights into flame/spray interactions as well as on the NOx formation mechanism in such complex flame configurations.

The comparison between experiment and simulation confirms the capability of LES to reproduce the gaseous and liquid flow structure in both non-reacting and reacting cases with good accuracy. The lifted stabilized spray flame exhibits a complex shape due to interactions between turbulence, chemistry and evaporation. A detailed analysis shows that both partially-premixed and diffusion flames are present, depending on the capacity of droplets to evaporate. Furthermore, an attempt is made to identify the processes leading to two-phase flame stabilization.}}

The model, named PAMELA, expresses the drop size Probability Density Function of the spray in the form of a Rosin–Rammler distribution whose parameters depend on flow conditions. A mechanism of liquid fragmentation is proposed where a Rayleigh–Taylor instability develops in the transverse direction. The wavelength of this instability (i) is assumed to be proportional to the Sauter Mean Diameter of the spray, and (ii) scales with a Weber number based on the atomizing edge thickness, providing a first link between flow conditions and the Rosin–Rammler parameters. The second link is found by introducing a second Weber number based on the thickness of the boundary layer developing on the prefilmer. A first comparison with academic experiments shows that the model assumptions are valid and allows to calibrate the model constants. PAMELA is then implemented in a LES solver to perform the numerical simulation of an academic airblast atomizer. The obtained drop size distribution and spatial structure of the spray are in good agreement with measurements, demonstrating the validity of the proposed approach in the context of LES, and that the proposed PAMELA model may now be used to describe the liquid spray in LES of industrial nozzles.}}

This leads to increased production and maintenance costs, and requires better understanding and control. Crude oil fouling is a chemical reaction that is, at first order, thermally controlled. In such large furnaces, the predominant heat transfer process is thermal radiation by the hot combustion products, which directly heats the pipes. As radiation fluxes depend on temperature differences, the pipe surface temperature also plays an important role and needs to be predicted with sufficient accuracy. This pipe surface temperature results from the energy balance between thermal radiation, convective heat transfer, and conduction in the solid material of the pipe, meaning that the thermal behavior of the whole system is a coupled radiation–convection–conduction problem. In this work, this coupled problem is solved in a cylindrical furnace, in which the crude oil flowing in vertical pipes is heated. The thermal radiation of combustion gases is modeled using the discrete ordinate method (DOM) with accurate spectral models and is coupled to heat conduction in the pipe to predict its wall temperature. The flame is described with a complex chemistry combustion model. An energy balance confirms that heat transfers are effectively dominated by thermal radiation. Good agreement with available measurements of the radiative heat flux on a real furnace shows that the proposed approach predicts the correct heat transfers to the pipe. This allows an accurate prediction of the temperature field on the pipe surface, which is a key parameter for liquid fouling inside the pipe. This shows that the thermal problem in furnaces can be handled with relatively simple models with good accuracy}, url = {http://heattransfer.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/article.aspx?articleid=2506748}}

Since the kerosene is injected in a liquid phase into the combustion chamber, the description of the atomization is of primary importance. The article first discusses the numerous numerical challenges encountered during this process, which leads to the formation of small droplets that constitute a spray. The existing numerical and modeling methods to describe a spray of kerosene droplets are then presented. The article then focuses on the description of the complex combustion kinetics. Hundreds of species and thousands of reactions have to be considered to predict ignition, flame stabilization and pollutant emissions. Due to lengthy computational times, detailed chemical schemes are too large to be directly used in CFD. This article then presents the major existing chemical reduction strategies. Significant interactions of the reactions layers with the flow vortices occur at the subgrid scale. The question of turbulent combustion modeling is therefore discussed in an LES context. Finally, the prediction of soot and NOx formation is presented. The review is illustrated by several examples representative of practical situations encountered in aeronautical combustors.}, pdf = {https://cerfacs.fr/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/CFD_RIBER_AL11-05_0.pdf}}

While this phenomenon has been extensively studied on single injector configurations, the burner-to-burner propagation of a full annular combustor is rarely investigated, due to the size and complexity of the geometry involved. To this purpose, an annular experimental setup has been developed at EM2C, featuring sixteen swirl injectors and quartz tubes providing a direct optical access to the flame. Ignition has been investigated systematically on this device, thus providing a large experimental database. In this work, this experiment is computed in the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) framework by carrying out massively parallel computations. This constitutes a unique comparison between experiments and calculations of a critical process for gas turbines. The ability of turbulent combustion models to properly retrieve the flame structure and propagation at the largest scales is not yet fully assessed and is investigated in this paper by comparing two conceptually different combustion modeling approaches, namely the filtered tabulated chemistry (F-TACLES) and the flame thickening with reduced chemistry (TFLES). Qualitative and quantitative comparisons between both simulations and experiment show an overall excellent agreement.}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.proci.2014.07.008}}

Such technology raises the issue of ensuring a reliable ignition since the combustor operates closer to blow-off. Ignition is however known as a stochastic phenomenon, associated to various sources of system variability. These variabilities and their impact on the success or failure of ignition are still not fully understood. In this paper, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of laser ignition sequences in an academic swirled turbulent partially premixed burner are performed to obtain statistical information at three selected ignition locations representative of the various ignition scenarios observed. The velocity and mixing fields are first validated against measurements to eliminate uncertainty associated with the non-reacting flow. LES is then shown to recover the ignition statistical behavior and probability for the selected ignition locations. Moreover, LES analysis allows to identify the various mechanisms that drive ignition failure or success. Statistics of flame displacement speed are used to demonstrate the effect of curvature and stretch in regions of intense turbulence and the impact of partial premixing on the ignition process.}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.proci.2014.07.040}}

While most of the papers are focused on simplex atomiser with only one fuel passage, we propose to account for specific industrial configurations based on duplex atomiser where both the primary and the secondary passages operate. For the second passage, the fuel spray angle is wider, leading to spray / wall interactions and airblast atomization. The computation domain consists in the experimental mock-up without the fuel atomizer part. The liquid-injection boundary condition is applied through the phenomenological FIM-UR model, which prescribes droplet velocities and diameter distribution at the atomizer tip based on both the atomizer characteristics and the liquid mass flow rate. No specific models are used for spray / wall interaction, and droplets are assumed to slip on the walls. The numerical results are compared with the experimental database for Jet-A1 fuel, built through Phase Doppler Anemometry instrumentation, allowing access to local information regarding the droplets velocity components. Three LES are performed for pressure loss ranging from 1 to 3%, covering an important part of the engine operating conditions, from high altitude relight to cruise operating point. Mean and fluctuating velocity profiles show a relatively good agreement with measurements, for all the operating points. It confirms that the spray/wall interactions, airblast and secondary breakup models may be neglected as a first approximation for configurations where only a relatively small amount of fuel impacts the wall.}, url = {https://asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/GT/proceedings-abstract/GT2020/84133/V04BT04A018/1094781}}

Steam cracking- the principal process used for the production of ethylene has gained increasing interest, both at a fundamental as well as at a systems level, with the ultimate objective of making ethylene production energy-efficient and lesser polluting (https://cerfacs.fr/improof/). Numerical studies published in the past used Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations coupled with the Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE) to solve for the mean flow field. However, for gaining deeper insights about the combustion occurring inside the furnace, unsteady flow features need to be captured using accurate and proven numerical techniques such as Large Eddy Simulation (LES). The challenges associated with LES of steam cracking furnaces include the presence of large spatial and temporal scale separation and the concomitant high computational cost, modeling accurate and sufficiently detailed chemistry to predict combustion and incorporating radiative heat transfer effects. In this study, the LES of a steam cracking furnace is carried out for the first time, by addressing the first two of the abovementioned challenges using novel numerical methods and chemistry reduction techniques. Although LES solvers based on explicit time integration schemes, such as AVBP (www.cerfacs.fr/avbp7x), exhibit excellent numerical resolution and accuracy, they are limited in the maximum allowable time step that can be used, due to numerical stability requirements. This limitation is aggravated even further in the case of simulations of furnaces due to small time steps and large flow-through times. In this study, this issue of stiffness is addressed using a novel acceleration technique based on local time-stepping coupled with overset grid methodology. The acceleration technique is validated on multiple test cases and shown to incur a minimum loss in simulation accuracy. The technique is used in the current simulation and speedup by a factor of 4 was observed. Accurate prediction of temperature, heat release and pollutants inside the furnace requires accurate chemistry at a reasonable computational cost. In this study, a recent and detailed chemical mechanism for methane combustion is analytically reduced using the classical DRGEP method and QSS approximation tool ARCANE (https://cerfacs.fr/chemistry/en/arcane/). The reduced mechanism is validated with the detailed one and found to reproduce all the relevant chemical features of the detailed scheme accurately. In this paper, the LES simulation results are compared with available measurements of temperature. This study emphasizes the need for the engineering community to embrace LES as a furnace and burner design tool by demonstrating its application on a real steam cracking furnace.}, keywords = {combustion, LES}, pdf = {https://cerfacs.fr/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/CFD-NADAKKAL_INFUB_12.pdf}}

LES solvers based on explicit time integration methods are known for their superior accuracy and resolution properties, but suffer from constraints on the maximum allowable time step imposed by the smallest computational cell, thereby impeding their efficient application to such multiscale problems. Thanks to an original and efficient multiscale computational strategy, a turbulent diffusion flame of a 15m high steam cracking furnace has been simulated for the first time with LES using the code AVBP, an explicit, compressible reactive flow solver. Analytically reduced chemistry (ARC), a novel and proven technique used to reduce the number of species and reactions from a detailed mechanism while still preserving the global kinetic properties accurately, has been used. An ARC mechanism optimized for methane combustion was derived and used in the study and NOx and CO emissions at the furnace exit have been predicted.

Such precision may be achieved with detailed chemical kinetics mechanisms which have been developed in order to accurately capture all the details of the combustion process over a wide range of thermodynamic conditions. However, these mechanisms involve many species and reactions, making them too expensive for numerical simulation of 3D industrial cases. One solution to this problem is to reduce the complexity by targeting a specific operating range of temperature, pressure, and equivalence ratio, representative of the real case, as well as specific species that are of importance if one wants to account for ??# or soot production for example. Such reduced mechanisms have been successfully derived using the multi-stage reduction code YARC [1] with the following procedure. First, Direct Relation Graph with Error Propagation (DRGEP) [2] is applied on species and reactions with specified species as targets (typically fuel, oxidizer, and pollutants of interest), followed by chemical lumping, resulting in a skeletal mechanism accounting for the relevant species and reactions only. Finally, a timescale analysis along with DRGEP is used to identify species that can be set in Quasi-Steady State (QSS) in order to further speed up the calculation. In collaboration with Pr. P. Pepiot, a new automatic reduction tool called ARCANE has been developed to make it more efficient, more flexible and easier to use. ARCANE relies on the Cantera chemistry solver [3] and is written in Python language. ARCANE tool has been benchmarked against YARC on canonical cases validating it. This talk will first present the main features of ARCANE. Then, an example of reduction for methane-air combustion will be presented. Analytically Reduced Chemistries (ARC) are first compared to detailed mechanisms on 0D reactor and 1D flame configurations in the target operating range, and confirm that the error induced by the reduction is small enough to correctly capture important features such as intermediate species profiles, ignition delay time and laminar flame speed. Finally, several strategies to model complex fuels such as kerosene in the scope of Large Eddy Simulation (LES) will be presented: n-decane (?%&?(() as a mono-component surrogate of kerosene, the HyChem mono-component model [4,5] but accounting for the full composition of kerosene, and finally the multi-component approach.

The direct integration of such detailed chemistry in LES is not a viable path, because of excessive compu- tational demands and numerical stiffness. Modeling real transportation fuel is further complicated by the fact that kerosenes are complex blends of a large number of hydrocarbon compounds; the exact composi- tion of which is very difficult to determine. In this work, the real-fuel combustion chemistry is described by the Hybrid Chemistry (HyChem) approach; and an LES-compliant Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) is used to allow a direct integration of the fuel chemistry in the LES solver. The ARC mecha- nism is coupled with the Dynamically Thickened Flame LES model (DTFLES) and a Lagrangian spray description to investigate the turbulent two-phase flow flame of a lean direct injection combustor, fueled with Jet-A. The LES results are compared to experimental data in terms of gas velocity, temperature and major species (CO2, H2O, CO, NO) mass fractions.

In the context of reducing harmful emissions, however, including these needed additional kinetic details in combustion simulations is becoming essential. Direct integration of detailed chemistry in accurate turbulent combustion models is not a viable option in the foreseeable future. In this context, Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) represents an attractive compromise between accuracy and efficiency, and is already employed in relatively complex Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) and Large Eddy Simulations (LES).

Lateral blowing impact on the stability of the flow is analysed thanks to parametric unsteady simulations by varying the flow rate over the upper surface. The results clearly show a stabilization of the flow when lateral blowing increases. Linear stability analysis on local velocity profiles enables to accurately reconstruct the mode on a selected weakly unstable case, although the frequency selection mechanism is not well captured. The same analysis is performed on a stable case and even if strong differences are noticed, linear stability do not give a conclusion as clear as the one obtained with numerical simulations. More generally, these results show a stabilization effect of the lateral blowing on corner vortex shedding and the ability of the linear stability analysis to reproduce and predict this mechanism}, keywords = {Corner vortex shedding ; solid rocket motors ; large eddy simulation ; linear stability}, pdf = {https://cerfacs.fr/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/CFD_CONFSpacePro16_Lacassagne.pdf}}

In these examples, the accuracy and the predictive capacity of LES are clearly demonstrated, even for unsteady phenomena. However most industrial burners are fed with liquid fuel and require the description of droplets dispersion, evaporation and burning. The presence of liquid fuel strongly modifies the fuel vapor distribution in the chamber, leading to different flame ignition and stabilisation processes, as well as different flame structures. Extending the LES technique to two-phase reacting flow is therefore crucial to capture and predict the behavior of such burners. This has been done in the code AVBP, coupling an eulerian solver for the liquid spray with a LES solver for the gas flow. This approach allows to work on unstructured grids and therefore to calculate the flow in complex geometries. In the present paper, the main steps of the extension of LES to two-phase flow are described and an example of validation is given. Then the solver is applied to the Vesta combustor of Turbomeca, composed of 18 main burners ignited by two pilot flames. This illustrates the capacity of LES to compute complex two-phase reacting flows in transient regimes. To demonstrate LES efficiency, some results will be shown for a calculation done on the IBM supercomputer BlueGene/L - cited by TOP500 as the world's fastest machine - where the use of 2048 parallel processors has enabled to start computing on the full combustor domain (i.e. 18 main injectors + 2 pilot flames).}, url = {http://proceedings.fyper.com/eccomascfd2006/}}

The request for more environmentally-friendly combustion systems calls now for the accurate description of chemistry, which drives pollutant emissions, but also the impact of alternative fuels or ignition capabilities. To do so, one promising approach is the so-called ARC-LES, where the chemistry is described with analytically reduced chemistry (ARC) and the turbulent combustion is modeled in the large eddy simulation (LES) framework. ARC-LES realizes an excellent compromise between accuracy and computing cost, as ARC retains the most important chemical paths and LES directly resolves the most important turbulent scales. In this chapter, the ARC concept is described in detail. After explaining the method of derivation of ARC schemes, several examples of application to turbulent flames show that ARC-LES well captures the turbulence-chemistry interaction in complex flows, and leads to very good predictions of the flame structure and emissions.}, keywords = {Chemistry, Combustion, Gas turbines, Large eddy simulation, Pollutants, Soot, Turbulence}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-444-64087-1.00019-X}}
