The study focuses on investigating the effect of air preheat temperature on the temperature of the flame. A standard k-ε turbulence model in combination with the Probability Density Function (PDF) model for Non Premix Combustion model and Eddy Dissipation Model (EDM) are utilized to represent the flow and temperature fields of the flame being investigated, respectively. The results of calculations are compared with experimental data of propane flame taken from literature. The results of the study showed that the combination of the standard k-ε turbulence model and PDF model is more capable of producing reasonable predictions of temperature, particularly in axial profile and rich fuel area of all two flames compared with those of EDM model. Both experimental works and numerical simulation showed that increasing the temperature of the combustion air significantly increases the flame temperature. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Combustion model,Computational Fluid Dynamics codes,Eddy dissipation models,Flame temperatures,Preheat temperature,Probability densities,Probability density function (pdf),Turbulent[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Eddy dissipation model,Preheat,Probability density model,Propane,Turbulent[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.871.95[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
