Resumo:
A systematic assessment of the submodels of conditional moment closure (CMC) formalism for the autoignition problem is carried out using direct numerical simulation (DNS) data. An initially non-premixed, n-heptane/air system, subjected to a three-dimensional, homogeneous, isotropic, and decaying turbulence, is considered. Two kinetic schemes, (1) a one-step and (2) a reduced four-step reaction mechanism, are considered for chemistry An alternative formulation is developed for closure of the mean chemical source term

A two-point closure strategy in mapping closure approximation (MCA) approach is developed for the evolution of the probability density function (PDF) of a scalar advected by stochastic velocity fields. The MCA approach is based on multipoint statistics. We formulate a MCA modeled system using the one-point PDFs and two-point correlations. The MCA models can describe both the evolution of the PDF shape and the rate at which the PDF evolves.
Resumo:
The Mapping Closure Approximation (MCA) approach is developed to describe the statistics of both conserved and reactive scalars in random flows. The statistics include Probability Density Function (PDF), Conditional Dissipation Rate (CDR) and Conditional Laplacian (CL). The statistical quantities are calculated using the MCA and compared with the results of the Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). The results obtained from the MCA are in agreement with those from the DNS. It is shown that the MCA approach can predict the statistics of reactive scalars in random flows.
