Abstract:

One-dimensional premixed turbulent flames have been studied using the PDF method. These flames are directly relevant to the combustion in spark ignition engines, and are basic to our understanding of yet more complicated combustion phenomena. The objective of the work was to develop a theory to calculate the flame properties as functions of the governing parameters. Author
