LES of Vertical Turbulent Wall Fires

Ning Ren1, Yi Wang1, Sebastien Vilfayeau2, Arnaud Trouvé2

1. FM Global, Research, Norwood, MA, USA

2. University of Maryland, College Park, MD, USA

Background

Industrial-scale fire tests– Reduce fire loses– Expensive– Limited configurations

Fire modeling– Understand physics– Reduce large scale tests

Challenges– Multi-physics– Multi-phases

Slide 2

6 m

Slide 3

Background

Tools – FireFOAM Open-source fire model (FM Global)

– www.fmglobal.com/modeling (2008-Present)

Based on OpenFOAM– A general-purpose CFD toolbox (OpenCFD, UK)

Main features– Object-oriented C++ environment– Advanced meshing capabilities– Massively parallel capability (MPI-based)– Advanced physical models:

• turbulent combustion, radiation• pyrolysis, two phase flow, suppression, etc.

Slide 4

Slide 5

Background

• Multi-physics interaction• Difficult to instrument

• Vertical wall fire is a canonical problem

• Industrial-scale Fire Test

Background

Experiments– Orloff, L., et.al (1974) PMMA– Ahmad, T., et.al (1979) – Markstein, G.H., de Ris, J. (1990)– de Ris, J., et.al (1999)

Modeling– Tamanini, F. (RANS,1975) PMMA– Kennedy, L.A., et.al (RANS,1976)– Wang, Y.H., et.al (RANS, 1996)– Wang, Y.H., et.al (FDS, 2002)– Xin, Y. (FDS, 2008)

Slide 6

Orloff, L, et.al (PMMA)

Challenges– High grid requirement– Buoyancy driven– Mass transfer– Reacting boundary flow

Experiments –

Prescribed flow rates– Propylene– Methane– Ethane– Ethylene

Water cooled vertical wall Diagnostics

– Temperature– Radiance– Heat flux– Soot depth

Slide 7

(J. de Ris et al., FM, 1999)(J. de Ris et al., Proc. 7th IAFSS, 2002)

Grid requirement Momentum driven flow (Piomelli et

al., 2002)

Natural convection (Holling et al., 2005)

Wall Fires– 10~20 cells across the flame

Summary and future work

Summary– Near wall turbulence and combustion models are important– Good agreements are obtained for wall-resolved modeling– 10~20 cells across the flame are needed– Convective heat flux is important in the downstream flaming zone

Future work– Test soot model for radiation– Improve turbulence and combustion models for coarse-grained

modeling– Wall function study
