【 摘 要 】

In the present study, direct numerical simulations for smoldering in simplified geometries are performed for multicomponent and dilatable flows. The reactant gas is passing inside an array of permeable and microporous cylinders. The chemical reaction takes place within the grains. For the sake of simplicity, the smoldering is treated as a single step chemical reaction. We define a Darcy-Brinkman model to deal with the multi-scale nature of this problem. Varying the flow rate, and carbon content, we can investigate the response of our model, and try to compare with existing solutions or available experimental investigations. Thus, the ability of the Darcy Brinkman approach to capture such situations of porous particles combustion will be checked. The numerical model sensitivity to the inner grain permeability is also investigated.
