    Description: We estimate potential energy savings in IP-over-WDM networks achieved by switching off router line cards in low-demand hours. We compare three approaches to react on dynamics in the IP traffic over time, FUFL, DUFL and DUDL. They provide different levels of freedom in adjusting the routing of lightpaths in the WDM layer and the routing of demands in the IP layer. Using MILP models based on three realistic network topologies as well as realistic demands, power, and cost values, we show that already a simple monitoring of the lightpath utilization in order to deactivate empty line cards (FUFL) brings substantial benefits. The most significant savings, however, are achieved by rerouting traffic in the IP layer (DUFL), which allows emptying and deactivating lightpaths together with the corresponding line cards. A sophisticated reoptimization of the virtual topologies and the routing in the optical domain for every demand scenario (DUDL) yields nearly no additional profits in the considered networks. These results are independent of the ratio between the demand and capacity granularities, the time scale and the network topology, and show little dependency on the demand structure.

    Description: In this paper we revisit the a priori turbulent flame speed tabulation (TFST) technique for a given parameter space within the region of flamelet combustion-regimes. It can be used as a subgrid-scale (SGS) model in Large Eddy Simulation (LES). In a first step, stationary laminar flamelets are computed and stored over the progress variable following the ideas of flamelet generated manifolds (FGM). In a second step, the incompressible one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations supplemented by the equation for the progress variable are solved on a grid that resolves all turbulent scales. Additionally, turbulent transport is implemented via the linear eddy model (LEM). The turbulent flame structures are solved until a statistically stationary mean value of the turbulent flame speed has been reached. The results are stored in a table that could be used by large scale premixed combustion models, e.g. front tracking schemes. First results are compared quantitatively with direct numerical simulations (DNS) taken from literature. Then it is illustrated in one example how the new method could help to fix constants in algebraic models for turbulent flame speeds. Further it is shown how the technique can be extended to incorporate turbulent strain effects. Finally we investigate the effect of the use of detailed and tabulated chemistry under unsteady conditions.

    Description: A world-wide used program for the simulation of fire-induced flows is the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) which originally was developed for a purely serial execution on single-processor computing systems. Due to steadily increasing problem sizes and accuracy requirements as well as restrictions in storage capacity and computing power on single-processor systems, the efficient simulation of the considered fire scenarios can only be achieved on modern high-performance systems based on multi-processor architectures. The transition to those systems requires the elaborate parallelization of the underlying numerical methods which must guarantee the same result for a given problem as the corresponding serial execution. Unfortunately, one fundamental serial serial solver of FDS, the pressure solver, only possesses a low degree of inherent parallelizm. Its current parallelization may cause additional numerical errors, casually leading to significant losses of accuracy or even numerical instabilities. In order to ensure that the parallelization errors are limited by the leading error of the numerical scheme such that second order convergence for the whole method can be acchieved, optimized parallelization concepts must be designed. With respect to these considerations this articles gives an overview of the current parallel pressure solver as well as the problems related to it and presents an alternative method, SCARC, to overcome the existing complicacies. Part I explains the theory, concept and implementation of this new strategy, whereas Part II describes a series of validation and verification tests to proof its correctness.

    Description: Because CFD programs, like FDS, generally consist of a large number of different components representing the variety of participating numerical algorithms and chemical / physical processes, it is nearly impossible to verify such codes in their entirety, for example with comparisons of fire tests. Instead, a careful verification and validation with respect to the underlying mathematical conditions and applied numerical schemes is indispensable. In particular, error cancelations between single program components can only be detected by such detailed component-level tests. In part I of this article series a conceptual deficiency of the FDS program package with regard to multi-mesh computations was illustrated and an alternative domain decomposition strategy FDS-ScaRC was introduced. In this second part we will present the structure of a comprehensive test concept and the needs for a more mathematically and numerically orientated test procedure that is much more suited for a reliable evaluation than only a simple visual comparison of the numerical results with experimental fire tests. After a general introduction of our test concept we will demonstrate the high potential of the new FDS-\scarc{} technique compared to the FDS-FFT technique which is used in the FDS program package as yet. Based on this concept, we will present a comprehensive set of analytical and numerical test results.

    Description: Recently the unsteady response of 1-D premixed flames to acoustic pressure waves for the range of frequencies below and above the inverse of the flame transit time was investigated experimentally by Wangher et al. using OH chemiluminescence. They compared the frequency dependence of the measured response to the prediction of an analytical model proposed by Clavin et al., derived from the standard flame model (one-step Arrhenius kinetics). Discrepancies between the experimental results and the model led to the conclusion that the standard model does not provide an adequate description of the unsteady response of real flames and that it is necessary to investigate more realistic chemical models. Here we follow exactly this suggestion and perform numerical studies of the reponse of lean methane flames using different reaction mechanisms. We find that the global flame response obtained with both detailed chemistry (GRI3.0) and a reduced multi-step model by Peters lies slightly above the predictions of the analytical model, but is close to experimental results. We additionally used an irreversible one-step reaction model which yields good results at least for frequencies close to the inverse flame transit time.

    Description: For an analysis of a molecular system from a computational statistical thermodynamics point of view, extensive molecular dynamics simulations are very inefficient. During this procedure, at lot of redundant data is generated. Whereas the algorithms spend most of the computing time for a sampling of configurations within the basins of the potential energy landscape of the molecular system, the important information about the long-time behaviour of the molecules is given by transition regions and barriers between the basins, which are sampled rarely only. Thinking of molecular dynamics trajectories, researchers try to figure out which kind of dynamical model is suitable for an efficient simulation. This article suggests to change the point of view from extensive simulation of molecular dynamics trajectories to more efficient sampling strategies of the conformation dynamics approach.

    Description: The influence of thermal stratification on autoignition at constant volume and high pressure is investigated under turbulent conditions using the one-dimensional Linear-Eddy Model (LEM) and detailed hydrogen/air chemistry. Results are presented for the influence of initial temperature inhomogeneities on the heat release rate and the relative importance of diffusion and chemical reactions. The predicted heat release rates are compared with heat release rates of Chen et al. and Hawkes et al. obtained by two-dimensional Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS). Using the definition of Chen et al. for the displacement speed of the H2 mass fraction tracked at the location of maximum heat release, and a comparison of budget terms, different combustion modes including ignition front propagation and deflagration waves are identified and the results are compared to the DNS data. The LEM approach shows qualitatively and quantitatively reasonable agreement with the DNS data over the whole range of investigated temperature fluctuations. The results presented in this work suggest that LEM is a potential candidate as a sub-model for CFD calculations of HCCI engines.
