The objective of this work is to analyze and to model the turbulent flames in the context of coherent flame model. We present a detailed description of equations and the flamelet regimes in turbulent premixed flame. A surface density models proposed here represents a good issue for numerical simulation. Extension of coherent flame model and homogenous stilled reactor model is proposed to consider the dynamics behavior of flame and pollutants formation. From the results of this work it is concluded that the coherent flame model allows surpassing difficulties of the turbulent reactive flow modeling. Calculations based on a semi-global kinetic scheme and flamelet formulation combined with a well stirred reactor analysis of the burnt gases are used and provided reasonably accurate values of CO and NO formation. Also, we have observed that CO is formed near the reaction zone (front flame) but emission of CO2, H2O and NO are formed in the hot gases.

Abstract. There is a growing interest to characterize fire plumes in order to control air quality during wildfire episodes and to estimate the carbon and ozone balance of fire emissions. A numerical approach has been used to study the mechanisms of NO formation at the source level in wildfires given that NO plays an important role in the formation of ground-level ozone. The major reaction mechanisms involved in NO chemistry have been identified using reaction path analysis. Accordingly, a two-step global kinetic scheme in the gas phase has been proposed herein to account for the volatile fuel-bound nitrogen (fuel-N) conversion to NO, considering that the volatile fraction of fuel-N is released as NH3. Data from simulations using the perfectly stirred reactor (PSR) code from CHEMKIN-II package with a detailed kinetic mechanism (GDF-Kin® 3.0) have been used to calibrate and evaluate the global model under typical wildfire conditions in terms of the composition of the degradation gases of vegetation, the equivalence ratio, the range of temperatures and the residence time.
