IPT Industrial Combustion Course:
- Stoichiometry of combustion reactions
- Expansion of jets and combustion of gases
- liquid combustion
- Combustion and gasification of solids
- Atmospheric pollution and environmental legislation
- Formation and abatement of atmospheric pollutants
- Mass and energy balances in industrial combustion processes
- Techniques and instruments for measuring the composition of flue gases
- Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) applied to combustion
- Heat exchanges between flames and surfaces
- Visit to LET – test furnaces, mobile laboratory and instrumentation
Due to its experience, ATS will teach the following classes in the course:
ATS class on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) applied to combustion
Instructor: Dr. Guilherme Araujo Lima da Silva – Mechanical Engineer (EPUSP 1996); Doctor in Engineering (EPUSP 2008)
Importance of using CFD in combustion problems; conservation equations (quantity of motion, mass and energy); models for chemical reactions and heat transfer (convection and radiation); expected results of the CFD simulation; meshing, CFD and results post-processing packages; example case and CFD applications in industry.
