In the present work, the large eddy simulation (LES) has been used to simulate a single fuel jet reacting flow under the conditions of highly preheated and diluted air combustion (HPDAC). A hybrid procedure of the standard subgrid scale (SGS) magorinky-Lille model and Reynolds stress model (RSM) together with the finite rate/eddy dissipation reaction model has been employed to simulate a single wall jet HPDAC furnace chamber. The propane-air two-step combustion system is selected for modeling under two different HPDAC inlet air conditions corresponding to 3% w/w oxygen at 1300K and 21% w/w oxygen at 1300K. The numerical results show that the standart Smagorinsky model and Reynolds stress model together with the finite rate/eddy disspation model are capable of predicting the global flame effects on the flow, such as flow velocities, mixing patterns, temperatures and turbulent parameters. The predictions are found in acceptable agreement with the corresponding results of in-furnace measurements and physical modeling. By compared with the pure Reynolds stress model, it is found that the differences between the two predictions of LES and RSM are insignificant in the near field of the flow. The Smagorinsky constant C, has been also tuned in the work. It illustrates that Cs value significantly influences the predictions on both near field and far of the jet flow. Though, further development of SGS stress and combustion models is needed, it is found that LES is an attratctive tool to simulate the dynamic processes of turbulent reacting flows for the HPDAC furnaces.
