    Title: Combustion in SU2: Overview, work in progress and challenges ahead

    Abstract:

    Combustion in the heat and power industry is in a transition from using traditional fossil fuels to decarbonized fuels like hydrogen.

    In this talk we will give an overview of the current combustion capabilities and activities in SU2. We briefly show the different combustion models that are currently available and their performance, specifically the laminar flamelet models and the turbulent flamespeed closure models that can be implemented through user defined transport equations. We will also mention some work in progress and plans for the future like turbulent flamelet models and thermoacoustics.
    We will point out some improvements, specifically on the robustness of the SU2 solver and some work in progress on improving the geometric multigrid method.
