Abstract

Moderate or Intense Low-oxygen Dilution (MILD) combustion is a clean combustion technology with high thermal efficiency and low levels of emissions. In this paper, by employing Adelaide Jet-in-Hot-Co-flow (AJHC), several approaches are examined to increase the numerical solution accuracy. First, molecular diffusion effects are investigated in MILD combustion. Second, adjusting the Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) coefficients is comprehensively discussed, and finally, the reaction fraction coefficient and EDC formulation are investigated. The results show that the effect of enthalpy transport caused by molecular diffusion on the energy equation must be considered in the low oxygen concentration regions. Also, the maximum temperature in the MILD region can be kept constant by adjusting EDC coefficients. Furthermore, it is shown that applying the reaction fraction factor increases the accuracy of the numerical solution in the MILD region.
