The Coherent Flamelet Model (CFM) is applied to symmetric counterflow turbulent premixed flames studied by Kostiuk et al. The flame source term is set proportional to the sum of the mean and turbulent rate of strain while flame quenching is modeled by an additional multiplication factor to the flame source term. The turbulent rate of strain is set proportional to the turbulent intensity to match the correlation for the turbulent burning velocity investigated by Abdel-Gayed et al. The predicted flame position and turbulent flow field coincide well with the experimental observations. The relationship between the Reynolds averaged reaction progress variable and flame density seems to show a wrong trend due to inappropriate modeling of the sink and source term in the transport equation.

An analysis of local flame area was performed using DNS (Direct Numerical Simulation) databases of turbulent premixed flames with different density ratios and with different Lewis numbers. Firstly, a local flame surface at a prescribed progress variable was identified as a local three-dimensional polygon. And then the polygon was divided into some triangles and local flame area was evaluated. The turbulent burning velocity was evaluated using the ratio of the area of turbulent flame to that of planar flame and compared with the turbulent burning velocity obtained by the reaction rate.
