Funded Activity Summary

Advanced Studies of Turbulent Combustion: Premixed to Nonpremixed. Despite limited resources, the world will continue to rely heavily on fossil fuels to satisfy the growing energy requirements. There is a pressing need, therefore, for cleaner, more efficient combustion not only to conserve energy but also to reduce environmental emissions of pollutants. This project tackles several major areas of turbulent combustion covering premixed and nonpremixed flames of gaseous and liquid fuels. Each project involves complex calculations and validation with measurements obtained using advanced laser diagnostic methods. This is a major research program leading to advanced numerical methods which will eventually be implemented in numerical tools to optimise combustor designs.
