Flame-flow interaction during premixed and stratified swirl flame flashback in an annular swirl combustor
The interaction between a propagating flame and the approach flow is critical to the understanding of boundary layer flashback of swirling flames. In this work, I investigated this interaction during flashback using high-speed luminosity imaging and simultaneous three-dimensional particle image …

Experimental Investigation of Flow and Wall Heat Transfer in an Optical Combustor for Reacting Swirl Flows
… require better understanding of combustion in swirl flows and thermal energy transfer from the turbulent reacting flows to solid surfaces. Therefore, accurate measurement and prediction of the flows and heat loads are indispensable. This dissertation presents flow details and wall heat flux …

Predicting Soot Emissions with Advanced Turbulent Reacting Flow Modelling
… not only for accurate predictions related to flame characteristics but also to meet increasingly stringent regulations. Over the last decades, advances in the understanding of key processes controlling soot formation and oxidation have led to the development of models that can replicate soot …

Simulations of turbulent swirl combustors
This thesis aims at improving our knowledge on swirl combustors. The work presented here is based on Large Eddy Simulations (LES) coupled to an advanced combustion model: the Conditional Moment Closure (CMC). Numerical predictions have been systematically compared and validated with detailed …
