used in time <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> space discretizati<strong>on</strong>, respectively. More details about the numerical<br />

methods can be found in [5]. The simulati<strong>on</strong>s were performed with<br />

the Shear Stress Transport turbulence model <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> the partially burning velocity<br />

combusti<strong>on</strong> model <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> CFX. Both models are described in chapter 4.1.2<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> 4.2.2. For simplicity all walls are assumed to be adiabatic. The chosen time<br />

step is△t = 2.5×10 −5 s. The main inlet flow parameters <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the two simulati<strong>on</strong><br />

cases are shown in Table 6.1. The temperature for all inlets was set to T = 298<br />

K. The inlet turbulence intensity, which is defined as the ratio <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> turbulent<br />

velocity fluctuati<strong>on</strong>s to the mean flow velocity, has a value <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> 5%. CFX n<strong>on</strong>reflecting<br />
