Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of radiation heat transfer on temperature distribution and heat flux to the walls of a diesel engine. A diffusion flame is modeled in a simple cylindrical geometry and boundary conditions are defined. A specific solver which can model the turbulent diffusion flame by considering radiation in participating media is used to solve the problem. The solver is verified using experimental data of a furnace. The results show that with considering radiation and non-gray effects in the model, the flame temperature is calculated higher than that with ignoring these effects (about 11% in problem considered in this study).
