Kendal (The University of British Columbia), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : British Columbia|Colombie-Britannique, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Plus Grants for Universities, program name french : Subvention d'engagement partenarial Plus pour les universités, program purpose english : With the progress achieved thus far in the framework of the Engage Project, the research group under Dr._x000D_
Bushe has provided expertise to drive further improvements in combustion simulation of swirl-stabilized_x000D_
burners. For the first time the innovative alternative methodology, Conditional Source-term Estimation (CSE)_x000D_
combustion model was applied to a swirl-stabilized burner to predict the flow field and temperature_x000D_
distribution using a simplified 2-step chemistry. The extention of the project via Engage Plus will allow for a_x000D_
more detailed investigation of the chosen test case and an attempt to improve the results by incorporating more_x000D_
complex chemistry. Such a development will provide a validation for the significant advantages CSE has to_x000D_
offer compared to the commonly used methods such as PDF transport methods and Laminar Flamelet models._x000D_
This approach will help provide a tool which can be used for applications in industry without the need for a_x000D_
supercomputer. This Engage Plus Grant will provide a perfect opportunity to strengthen the foundation for a_x000D_
potential long-term cooperation and further validate the ability and capability of the UBC research team to_x000D_
perform the work that is desired by MTU - ultimately leading to a Collaborative Research and Development_x000D_
