The Three Dimensional Evolution to Core Collapse of a Massive Star [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present the first three dimensional (3D) simulation of the final minutes of iron core growth in a massive star, up to and including the point of core gravitational instability and collapse.

Closure Relations for Fluxes of Flame Surface Density and Scalar Dissipation Rate in Turbulent Premixed Flames

open access: yesFluids, 2019
In this study, closure relations for total and turbulent convection fluxes of flame surface density and scalar dissipation rate were developed (i) by placing the focus of consideration on the flow velocity conditioned to the instantaneous flame within ...

The influence of turbulence on the structure and propagation of enclosed flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
Although it has long been established that burning rates can be appreciably increased by turbulence, the actual extent of this increase and the precise mechanism involved are still far from clear.

The Burning Velocity of Pulverised Biomass: the Influence of Particle Size

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
The use of pulverised biomass as a replacement for coal in power generation is a major source of renewable electricity in the UK. However, there is little data on flame propagation rates for pulverised biomass and this makes it difficult to design ...

Reconciling turbulent burning velocity with flame surface area in small-scale turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2018
A discrepancy between the enhancement in overall burning rate and the enhancement in flame surface area measured for high-intensity turbulence is addressed. In order to reconcile the two quantities, an additional contribution from the effective turbulent diffusivity is considered.

Thermonuclear .Ia Supernovae from Helium Shell Detonations: Explosion Models and Observables [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
During the early evolution of an AM CVn system, helium is accreted onto the surface of a white dwarf under conditions suitable for unstable thermonuclear ignition.

The Cellular Burning Regime in Type Ia Supernova Explosions - I. Flame Propagation into Quiescent Fuel

open access: yes, 2003
We present a numerical investigation of the cellular burning regime in Type Ia supernova explosions. This regime holds at small scales (i.e. below the Gibson scale), which are unresolved in large-scale Type Ia supernova simulations.

Letter: Does flame-generated vorticity increase turbulent burning velocity? [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2018
Direct numerical simulation data obtained from a statistically stationary, 1D, planar, weakly turbulent, premixed flame, which is associated with the flamelet combustion regime, are analyzed in order to show that generation of vorticity due to baroclinic torque within flamelets can impede wrinkling the reaction surface, reduce its area, and decrease ...

The Propagation Characteristics of Turbulent Expanding Flames of Methane/Hydrogen Blending Gas

open access: yesEnergies
In the present study, the effect of hydrogen addition on turbulent flame propagation characteristics is investigated in a fan-stirred combustion chamber.

Turbulent convection in stellar interiors. III. Mean-field analysis and stratification effects

open access: yes, 2013
We present 3D implicit large eddy simulations (ILES) of the turbulent convection in the envelope of a 5 Msun red giant star and in the oxygen-burning shell of a 23 Msun supernova progenitor.
