Abstract
A benchmark simulation of the jet in crossflow (JICF) configuration is presented in detail. A Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) was carried out with a low Reynolds number equal to 275 and a jet-to-crossflow velocity ratio equal to 2.4. The benchmark is carefully selected to provide reference data concerning the following phenomena: the flowfield, the mixing process of passive scalars and three chemical reactions. The data presented concern both instantaneous and time-averaged values as well as the corresponding fluctuations. To facilitate the quantitative comparison with the data from the present work various one-dimensional plots are presented. To allow easy repetition of the present numerical benchmark, both the jet and the crossflow are supplied at laminar flow conditions. As a result of this a transition zone occurs which in turn constitutes a severe test for any simulation methodology.
