Swirl Chamber
 
Hi,

which is the best turbulence model for modelling high swirl combustion chambers? Is the k-epsilon model suitable enough? The fluid flow has swirl factors from 1 to 10.

hi,

I would suggest you to use RSM. But I have seen some literatures proving k epsilon model to provide results very close to that of RSM (only for certain problems not always guaranteed). Its better to run RSM if computational cost is not an issue.

Cheers
