Abstract

Subgrid scale models for unresolved turbulent fluxes are investigated, with a focus on combustion for space propulsion applications. An extension to the gradient model is proposed, introducing a dependency on the local burning regimen. The dynamic behaviors of the model’s coefficients are investigated, and scaling laws are studied. The discussed models are validated using a DNS database of a high-pressure, turbulent, fuel-rich methane–oxygen diffusion flame. The operating point and turbulence characteristics are selected to resemble those of modern combustors for space propulsion applications to support the future usage of the devised model in this context.
