27 Description
28  Solver for internal combustion engines.
29 
30  Combusting RANS code using the b-Xi two-equation model.
31  Xi may be obtained by either the solution of the Xi transport
32  equation or from an algebraic exression. Both approaches are
33  based on Gulder's flame speed correlation which has been shown
34  to be appropriate by comparison with the results from the
35  spectral model.
36 
37  Strain effects are encorporated directly into the Xi equation
38  but not in the algebraic approximation. Further work need to be
39  done on this issue, particularly regarding the enhanced removal rate
40  caused by flame compression. Analysis using results of the spectral
41  model will be required.
42 
43  For cases involving very lean Propane flames or other flames which are
44  very strain-sensitive, a transport equation for the laminar flame
45  speed is present. This equation is derived using heuristic arguments
46  involving the strain time scale and the strain-rate at extinction.
47  the transport velocity is the same as that for the Xi equation.
