A numerical procedure is presented to predict the turbulent non-premixed combustion flames in regenerative furnaces. A moment closure method with the assumed β probability density function (PDF) for the mixture fraction is used in the present work. The procedure is applied to an experimental regenerative slab reheat furnace developed in NKK to demonstrate its predictive capability. The predictions are compared with the experimental data. The comparison is favorable. [S0022-1481(00)01302-5]
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
