Volume 2 of this significant work presents previously unpublished cutting-edge lectures from the Third French-Russian Workshop on Fluid Dynamics held in Tashkent in April 1995. Reflecting the Workshop?s main themes, this book particularly focuses on: expermental investigation of unsteady separated flow, 3D configurations, laminar and transitional flows, turbulent shock, shock interaction in hypersonic flow, pressure pulsation in separated flows and jets and high enthalpy flows using wind tunnels. modeling of free surface flows, natural gas combustion, vortical gas flows and acoustic processes in complex channels, non-equilibrium hypersonic viscous flows, wall law for fluids and compressible fluid jets with vortex zones. theoretical predictions of aerodynamic performances with analyses of supersonic combustion, detonation, and sumulation of reactive mixing layer. solution methods for quasilinear parabolic equations and other calculations including incompressible Navier Stokes equations and parabolic equations by Monte-Carlo methods. numerical algorithms for the simulation of atmospheric gas dynamics, kinetic schemes for viscous gas dynamic flows and evolutionary algorithms for complex optimization problems. This book will be of particular interest to all engineers and research scientists in Fluid Dynamics, Aeronautics, Aerospace and Mechanical or Applied Mathematics.

This book presents state-of-the-art lectures on complex flows of fundamental and industrial interest in the subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic regimes. Experimental investigations of unsteady separated flows, high-enthalpy flows, 3D configurations, laminar and transitional flows are addressed. Theoretical predictions of aerodynamic performances are provided along with analyses of supersonic combustion, detonation, simulation of reactive mixing layer and non-equilibrium flow. Computational Fluid Dynamics methods for the simulation of viscous compressible flow, inviscid viscous flow interactions, real-gas effects in rarefied flow, flows about bodies with permeable walls and supersonic turbulent flows are finally developed and analysed.

Turbulence is one of the key issues in tackling engineering flow problems. As powerful computers and accurate numerical methods are now available for solving the flow equations, and since engineering applications nearly always involve turbulence effects, the reliability of CFD analysis depends increasingly on the performance of the turbulence models. This series of symposia provides a forum for presenting and discussing new developments in the area of turbulence modelling and measurements, with particular emphasis on engineering-related problems. The papers in this set of proceedings were presented at the 5th International Symposium on Engineering Turbulence Modelling and Measurements in September 2002. They look at a variety of areas, including: Turbulence modelling; Direct and large-eddy simulations; Applications of turbulence models; Experimental studies; Transition; Turbulence control; Aerodynamic flow; Aero-acoustics; Turbomachinery flows; Heat transfer; Combustion systems; Two-phase flows. These papers are preceded by a section containing 6 invited papers covering various aspects of turbulence modelling and simulation as well as their practical application, combustion modelling and particle-image velocimetry.

This book reflects the outcome of the 1st International Workshop on Turbulent Spray Combustion held in 2009 in Corsica (France). The focus is on reporting the progress of experimental and numerical techniques in two-phase flows, with emphasis on spray combustion. The motivation for studies in this area is that knowledge of the dominant phenomena and their interactions in such flow systems is essential for the development of predictive models and their use in combustor and gas turbine design. This necessitates the development of accurate experimental methods and numerical modelling techniques. The workshop aimed at providing an opportunity for experts and young researchers to present the state-of-the-art, discuss new developments or techniques and exchange ideas in the areas of experimentations, modelling and simulation of reactive multiphase flows. The first two papers reflect the contents of the invited lectures, given by experts in the field of turbulent spray combustion. The first concerns computational issues, while the second deals with experiments. These lectures initiated very interesting and interactive discussions among the researchers, further pursued in contributed poster presentations. Contributions 3 and 4 focus on some aspects of the impact of the interaction between fuel evaporation and combustion on spray combustion in the context of gas turbines, while the final article deals with the interaction between evaporation and turbulence.

This book presents a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art models for turbulent combustion, with special emphasis on the theory, development and applications of combustion models in practical combustion systems. It simplifies the complex multi-scale and nonlinear interaction between chemistry and turbulence to allow a broader audience to understand the modeling and numerical simulations of turbulent combustion, which remains at the forefront of research due to its industrial relevance. Further, the book provides a holistic view by covering a diverse range of basic and advanced topics—from the fundamentals of turbulence–chemistry interactions, role of high-performance computing in combustion simulations, and optimization and reduction techniques for chemical kinetics, to state-of-the-art modeling strategies for turbulent premixed and nonpremixed combustion and their applications in engineering contexts.
