Abstract

In this paper, a fully compressible reacting flow solver with detailed species transport and chemistry for high-speed combustion simulations is developed. This new solver, which is based on the open source platform OpenFOAM, is validated with one-dimensional (1D) reactive shock tube, two dimensional (2D) cold jet in cross flow (JICF) with detailed chemical kinetics and transport properties. In addition, the new solver is also tested with the method of tabulated dynamic adaptive chemistry (TDAC) for a low-Mach flame (Sandia Flame D). The results show that this solver is robust enough to capture the shock/reaction wave, able to predict the pressure and temperature variation induced by shocks in JICF with Ma = 3.5 and capture the flame structure in flame with Ma = 0.1 − 0.2. The TDAC method implemented with this new solver is also tested in the Sandia Flame D case and indicates good accuracy.
