Principal project:
- Prediction of Toxic Species in Fire
- Funded by EPSRC
- The main objective of this project is to develop an advanced gas-phase chemistry model for toxic species, with additional dedicated balance equations for CO and other key species in a reduced chemistry scheme. The key research question to be addressed is how to most effectively achieve "chemical source term closure" which is the essential modelling challenge in turbulent combustion systems. The new methods will be validated against relevant experimental data from realistic fire scenarios designed to fully test the generality of the new modelling strategies. Detailed recommendations will be prepared on exploitation of the methodology. For details, please click here.
