Detached flat flame stabilized at a stagnation point#
This script simulates a lean hydrogen-oxygen flame stabilized in a strained flowfield at an axisymmetric stagnation point on a non-reacting surface. The solution begins with a flame attached to the inlet (burner), and the mass flow rate is progressively increased, causing the flame to detach and move closer to the surface.
This example illustrates use of the new ‘prune’ grid refinement parameter, which allows grid points to be removed if they are no longer required to resolve the solution. This is important here, since the flamefront moves as the mass flowrate is increased. Without using ‘prune’, a large number of grid points would be concentrated upstream of the flame, where the flamefront had been previously. (To see this, try setting prune to zero.)
