...Dhruv Purushotham; Joseph C. Oefelein The accuracy of three large-eddy simulations (LES) is assessed using a reference dataset obtained via direct numerical simulation (DNS). All of the LES simulations employ the dynamic Smagorinsky model to close the momentum equation and a dynamic gradient model...

... focuses on understanding the detailed flame structures associated with PFS-assisted lean premixed combustion. First, a two-dimensional direct numerical simulation (DNS) is performed using detailed fuel chemistry, experimental pressure trace, and realistic initial conditions mapped from a prior engine...
