Hi,

Where can I find a simple description about Bray-Moss-Libby Model of Turbulent Combustion ?

Thank you.
 
I've got a textbook here (Principles of Combustion, Kenneth K. Kuo, (C) 1986 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.)

page 484 refers to "statistical model of Bray and Moss":

As we learned before from the previous discussion on premixed turbulent flames, there are two alternative hypotheses regarding the physical structure of a premixed turbulent flame:

A) Wrinkled-Laminar-Flame ... [description]
B) Distributed-Reaction ... [description]

It seems likely that, in different circumstances, each of these alternative models may have a region of validity. The purpose of Bray and Moss's work is to create a unified description of the premixed turbulent flame, in order to define these regions of validity and to bridge the gaps between these two hypotheses.

---

the above is followed by a somewhat lengthy discussion of the Bray - Moss model (about 9 pages).

If the Bray - Moss - Libby model is a modification of the aforementioned, you may have better luck finding info about it in an SAE paper or similar publication.
