A flamelet generated manifolds lookup table tool for premixed turbulent combustion

The H2−IGCC [1] project is promoted under the supervision of the Gas Turbine Network and includes many European partners, either from the university and industrial field. Its overall objective is to provide and demonstrate technical solutions which will allow the use of stateof-the-art highly efficient, reliable gas turbines in the next generation of IGCC plants. TU Eindhoven is involved in the first subproject (SP1) which regards the Combustion part. The idea of using an open source tool [2] such as Open FOAM comes from the highly demanding costs referred to the supercomputers simulations, considering that a commercial software licence can become quite expensive, especially when parallel simulations are performed.
