Methane–Air Combustion in Can Combustor| Eddy Dissipation Model in
📝 Explore the physics of reacting flow through a can combustor that burns methane in air using ANSYS Fluent! 🔥
This Part 1 tutorial focuses on the Eddy Dissipation Model, a widely used approach for turbulent combustion simulation.
In this simulation, we analyze the flame structure, temperature distribution, and species concentration inside a gas-turbine-type can combustor to evaluate its combustion efficiency and performance.
You will learn how to:
⚙️ Set up the reacting flow using the species transport model
🔥 Apply the Eddy Dissipation Model (EDM) for turbulent flame simulation
💨 Analyze temperature, velocity, and reaction rate contours
📊 Evaluate the flame region and thermal efficiency
👉 In Part 2, we’ll use the Steady Flamelet Model and compare its results with the Eddy Dissipation approach.
🎓 Ideal for CFD learners, combustion researchers, and thermal engineers working on gas turbine combustors, flame modeling, and reacting flow simulations.
