Abstract
Large eddy simulation (LES) of a co-axial combustor is reported. Accuracy of LES depends on the ability of the sub-grid scale (SGS) models to predict the turbulent viscosity. The sensitivity of LES results for different SGS models is established for a coaxial annular combustor. The radial, axial and tangential velocity distribution predicted by four sub-grid scale models is compared with the experimental results of Sommerfeld and Qiu. It is observed that the flow physics is captured more accurately by WALE model as compared to other SGS models. The predictions of WALE model are closer to the experimental results for all stations in the flow domain.
