The Stochastic Reactor Model (SRM)
The particle properties (Temperature/enthalpy, species concentration) are statistically described by a Probability Density Function (PDF). The development of the PDF is calculated through particle interaction (mixing) and detailed chemistry.
In the zero-dimensional Stochastic Reactor Model, the in-cylinder gas mass is discretized into a set of particles without any spatial resolution. Each individual particle is treated as a well-stirred reactor.

The Stochastic Reactor Model (SRM)
Mixing is modeled as a stochastic process: Particles are randomly selected to interact with each other. Both temperature and chemical composition is exchanged. The frequency of mixing events is determined by the turbulent mixing time τ
Global Trucks Technology Arne Andersson, DEER 2012
The 33-species mechanism was found to yield unrealistic ignition timing, whereas the differences between the 200-species mechanism and the 477-species mechanism were negligible.
The 200-species NICE mechanism has been used for all simulations in this presentation.
Chemistry

• Vaporized fuel is introduced as new particles in the SRM.
• These particles are mixed with the background gas (air and EGR) according to the turbulent mixing time.

PPC modeling with the SRM
Problem: While the SRM model presumes statistical homogeneity in the combustion chamber, this assumption is not true for the PPC. At the point of ignition, much fuel is still concentrated in a rich zone
Solution: Divide the background gas in the SRM into two distinct zones. Let the injected fuel be introduced into one of the zones. Mix predominantly within each zone to capture the effects of stratification.

PPC modeling with the SRM
With the two-zone approach, each property of the gas is described by two superimposed PDF:s. The total mass of background gas to be allocated into the fuel-rich zone is a user parameter, as is the scale factor for the amount of mixing between the zones.

CFD calculations support the notion that a portion of the fuel is found in a localized rich zone for a significant amount of time after EOI. Zone volumes for the different operating points were approximated based on the Z distribution.

The mixing time is taken from CFD calculations for each respective operating point. In order to model the mixing within the rich zone, tau profiles conditioned on mixture fraction 0.06 to 0.08 were used.
Turbulent mixing time from CFD calculations
Global Trucks Technology Arne Andersson, DEER 2012
Case 1 – IMEP 12 bar A good agreement was found using the CFD provided mixing time.
Global Trucks Technology Arne Andersson, DEER 2012
Case 2 – IMEP 8 bar All relevant parameters except the turbulence profile and zone volume was kept constant between the cases.

Case 3 – IMEP 26 bar All relevant parameters except the turbulence profile and zone volume was kept constant between the cases.

3D combustion CFD generate statistical input data for the 0D combustion model • With the right statistical parameters we can create a 0D
combustion model capable of PPC simulation • A 2-zone stocastic approach is required to match CFD data • The Stocastic approach enables the use of big enough
kinetic mechanisms • The stocastic approach enables the combustion model
integration in GT-Power
