Lʼobjectif de cette étude est le développement dʼune méthodologie permettant de prévoir lʼallumage dʼune chambre de combustion aéronautique. Un modèle dʼallumage a été développé afin dʼétudier lʼexpansion dʼun noyau dʼallumage sphérique au sein dʼun brouillard. Il peut être couplé à un code de calcul CFD, et utilisé selon deux approches. La première consiste à établir une cartographie de probabilité dʼallumage à partir dʼun champ CFD non-réactif. La deuxième consiste à utiliser la solution du modèle comme condition initiale afin de réaliser un calcul de propagation de la flamme au foyer. Afin de valider ces deux approches, des simulations RANS et LES ont été réalisées sur une configuration de chambre de combustion équipée dʼun système dʼinjection industriel.

The present study aims at contributing to the development of a methodology to predict and improve the ignition performances of aircraft combustors. A model has been developed to investigate the early growth of a spherical ignition kernel in a two-phase flow mixture. It has been combined with a multiphysic code through two different approaches. The ignition kernel model is used to build the ignition probability map of a combustor. The output of the model can also be introduced as an initial condition in an unsteady simulation to test the flame propagation in the combustor. To validate both methods, RANS and LES simulations have been performed on an experimental combustion chamber, reproducing one sector of an industrial combustor.
