“…In addition to the aforementioned techniques, sophisticated approaches such as the G-equations [5], flame surface density [6,7], artificial flame thickening [8,9,10] or conditional moment closure [11,12] are presently been employed to accurately predict flame propagation under the influence of turbulence. In spite of the attendant issues associated with in-cylinder flow and combustion, the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of internal combustion engine is also being used to analyze a variety of complex issues like NOx formation [13], cycle-to-cycle variations [14,15] and flame-acoustics interactions [16,17]. As long as the demands for low emissions, higher efficiency and improved fuel economy of the internal combustion engine continues, research efforts into the mathematical and numerical techniques for modeling turbulent combustion and associated complex physical phenomena will continue to be of vital interest to engine manufacturers and the engine research community.…”
