Combustion Modeling

What it is about

In this module you work in small groups on numerical questions around combustion processes in aircraft and space propulsion engines. You will learn to apply model approaches for the interaction of turbulence and chemical reactions, evaluate thermal loads in combustion chambers, and investigate coupled temperature and flow fields.

What you will be able to do

• Knowledge of different numerical models for combustion problems
• Application of turbulence-chemistry interaction models
• Derivation of axial thermal loads on combustion chamber walls
• Determination of temperature fields in combustion chamber walls
• Analysis of coolant supply and flow in the cooling channel
• Assessment of the applicable limits of the various models

What the module consists of

• VorlesungseinheitenIntroduction of procedures, models and their implementation
• Projektarbeit in KleingruppenConducting numerical studies under guidance of scientific staff

Teaching method
