Combustion Simulations in Tokyo Gas and Expectations for Large-scale Simulation

Abstract

Tokyo Gas has been working to develop combustion simulation technology since 1980s. The development of our combustion simulations started from considering only flow and heat transfer, and through the implementation of turbulence combustion models and detailed reaction mechanisms, our technology has been evolved. Recently, in order to evaluate combustion emissions and reveal the complex phenomena, increase in the scale of simulation is inevitable. Examples of our simulations from past to present and expectations for large-scale simulation in the future are addressed in this paper.
