Excess, unrecoverable hydrocarbons are collected and burnt (in a flare) before releasing to atmosphere to reduce their environmental impact. Millions tones of hydrocarbons are burnt each year all around the world. A survey shows that, in 2017, around 270 million tones of CO2 is emitted by flaring. In many industrial…
You will learn how to use reactingFOAM solver to simulate a turbulent combustion of methane in air. The simulation is based on the combustion of methane in the Sandia D flame benchmark. reactingFoam is a transient solver for simulating compressible, laminar/turbulent reactive systems. This solver uses stoichiometry expressions and kinetic…
