The fractional change in the reaction progress variable gradient depends on the flow normal straining within the flame and also upon the corresponding normal gradients of the reaction rate and its molecular diffusion transport. The statistical behaviours

The Role of Differential Diffusion during Early Flame Kernel Development under Engine Conditions -- Part I: Analysis of the Heat-Release-Rate Response [PDF]
Although experimental evidence for the correlation between early flame kernel development and cycle-to-cycle variations (CCV) in spark ignition (SI) engines was provided long ago, there is still a lack of fundamental understanding of early flame/turbulence interactions, and accurate models for full engine simulations do not exist.

The Coherent Flame Model for Turbulent Chemical Reactions [PDF]
A description of the turbulent diffusion flame is proposed in which the flame structure is composed of a distribution of laminar diffusion flame elements, whose thickness is small in comparison with the large eddies.

Implementation of the adiabatic steady PPDF flamelet model involves a lot of variations including different scalar dissipation rate calculation methods and different mass diffusion models of the opposed jet flame.

On Classical Solutions for A Kuramoto–Sinelshchikov–Velarde-Type Equation
The Kuramoto–Sinelshchikov–Velarde equation describes the evolution of a phase turbulence in reaction-diffusion systems or the evolution of the plane flame propagation, taking into account the combined influence of diffusion and thermal conduction of the

The Interaction of High-Speed Turbulence with Flames: Turbulent Flame Speed [PDF]
(Abridged) Direct numerical simulations of the interaction of a premixed flame with driven, subsonic, homogeneous, isotropic, Kolmogorov-type turbulence in an unconfined system are used to study the mechanisms determining the turbulent flame speed, S_T, in the thin reaction zone regime. High intensity turbulence is considered with the r.m.s.

Fluid-mechanical structure of methane-air and propane-air turbulent premixed flames
The flow fields of lean and rich propane-air and methane-air turbulent premixed flames of the identical conditions of laminar burning velocity and characteristic of turbulence have been closely examined by using a three-color six-beam LDV system.

How "mixing" affects propagation and structure of intensely turbulent, lean, hydrogen-air premixed flames [PDF]
Understanding how intrinsically fast hydrogen-air premixed flames can be rendered much faster in turbulence is crucial for systematically developing hydrogen-based gas turbines and spark ignition engines. Here, we present fundamental insights into the variation of flame displacement speeds by investigating how the disrupted flame structure affects ...

Vortex-induced extinction behavior in methanol gaseous flames: a comparison with quasi-steady extinction [PDF]
Using a combination of HCHO planar laser-induced fluorescence and laser Doppler velocimetry measurements, the extinction behavior of methanol counterflow diffusion flames was examined experimentally under conditions in which the extinction was brought ...

On the dynamics of flame edges in diffusion-flame/vortex interactions [PDF]
We analyze the local flame extinction and reignition of a counterflow diffusion flame perturbed by a laminar vortex ring. Local flame extinction leads to the appearance of flame edges separating the burning and extinguished regions of the distorted mixing layer.
