3D Flame Front Tracking for Flamelet-based Models

摘要

This paper presents a three-dimensional flame front tracking algorithm which improves the evaluation of flamelet-based models using the actual flame surface instead of more traditional stochastic methods.The technique presented here gives an implicit representation of the flame front based on the tracking of particles embedded within a finite-volume discretization.This approach allows for the fast reconstruction of the actual surface using a series of geometric constraints.The idea behind the current development is similar in some ways to methods used for the tracking of free surfaces found in more traditional fluid flow simulations.
