Direct Numerical Simulations of Spark Ignition of H2/Air-Mixture in a Turbulent Flow

In this work the spark ignition of a HH2/air mixture in a turbulent flow field is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations using both, detailed chemical kinetics and detailed transport models. Parameters like ignition energy, turbulent velocity, etc., are adapted to data given by a similar experiment [1]. The results are discussed in the context of the interaction of the turbulent flow field with chemical kinetics.
