...Fei Wang; Liang An; Tat L. Chan Purpose This study aims to develop a new numerical framework for modelling soot formation and evolution via the soot particle size distribution ( PSD ) in turbulent flames. Design/methodology/approach The numerical framework couples an extended soot sectional...

... Monte Carlo (DSMC) and Multi-Monte Carlo (MMC) methods. Compared with DSMC and MMC methods, the stochastic error analysis shows this new LPT-WFMC method could further extend the particle size distributions (PSDs) and improve the accuracy for predicting soot PSDs at larger particle size regime...

... occurring in a turbulent planar jet from available literature. Then, the effects of jet temperature and Reynolds number on the evolution of time-averaged mean particle diameter, normalized particle number concentration and particle size distributions (PSDs) are studied numerically on both coagulation...

...Zhongli Chen; Fangyang Yuan; R.J. Jiang Purpose – The original v2-based sectional method assumes that the selected property quantity of particles is uniformly distributed in each section, which makes particle size distribution (PSD) fluctuate dramatically in the entire size range. The number...
