Modelling soot radiation in CFD simulations is a challenging task as it strongly depends on particle size, morphology and optical properties. In the literature, all the studies related to thermal radiation in sooty flames are considering soot as spherical particles, although it is well admitted that they are clustering into complex aggregates. In this PhD work, an aggregate morphology for soot particles is considered and the impact of advanced soot radiative models (such as RDGFA) is assessed on several configurations. These models are implemented in an accurate code based on a Monte-Carlo approach, which solves the radiative transfer equation to retrieve key thermal radiation quantities. Numerical strategies are developed to reduce the com...
