Description

Simulation of combustion processes are becoming more and more crucial in the development of new and cleaner methods for energy production. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is more cost eective compared to experiments, but the confidence in the results needs to be improved. For conventional combustion, development and validation of numerical models have been conducted
for dierent cases throughout the last decades, but for non-conventional combustion processes (such as MILD combustion) there is still a lot of work to be done. The chemical kinetics used today for example have been optimized and validated for conventional combustion, but for non-conventional combustion regimes, the performance is still lacking. The focus of this work is therefore
to improve the reliability of chemical kinetics for non-conventional combustion.
