Bluff-body flameholder wakes - A simple numerical solution
Abstract
Numerical finite difference predictions are made of recirculation zones behind bluff-body flame stabilizers, showing quantitatively the effects of forebody geometry, blockage ratio, lateral position of the blockage and inlet swirl on the central recirculation zone. A simple transient Navier-Stokes solution algorithm and laminar flow simulation are used with 'free slip' and 'no slip' wall boundary conditions, thus illustrating how a basic approach may be used to solve a sophisticated fluid dynamic problem.
