Objectives

• To develop a numerical model able to:– Include turbulence– Include free surface– Model reacting flows

• To develop and analyze numerical techniques for the problem described

• To apply the model to real chemical reactions

3

Key numerical ingredients

• Stabilized finite element approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

• Treatment of dominant rotation• Domain decomposition between fixed and

moving sub-domains• Coupled convection-diffusion-reaction
