Two-dimensional Methane/Air Flame

Abstract

First results are presented of a new flame code for modeling transport processes in two-dimensional flames using a one-step reaction model. The code is applied to a study on the flame shape of methane/air flames on a triple-slit burner. The results compare reasonably well with experimental data. We expect further improvement when more accurate measurements become available. These measurements are necessary to come to a more definite conclusion on the reliability of the model.
