Extensive experimental and numerical works were carried out and are still underway, to explore the feasibility of this interesting technology for practical applications. For this purpose, numerical modeling

Both submissions with an academic background as well as more application-oriented contributions are welcome. The addressed fields of research include but are not limited to: Modeling aspects: advanced collision operators, grid-refinement strategies, improved boundary conditions, performance aspects, turbulence modeling, multiphase flows, porous media; Modeling of conjugated heat transfer problems (conduction, convection, radiation); Modeling of complex heat transfer fluid like nanofluids or phase-change materials; Innovative applications of practical relevance in thermal engineering.

One is fast depletion of fossil fuel resources; the other is environmental pollution. The porous medium combustion (PMC) has proved to be one of the feasible options to tackle the aforesaid problems to a remarkable extent. PMC has interesting advantages compared with free flame combustion due to the higher burning rates, the increased power dynamic range, the extension of the lean flammability limits, and the low emissions of pollutants. This article provides a comprehensive picture of the global scenario of applications of PMC so as to enable the researchers to decide the direction of further investigation. The works published so far in this area are reviewed, classified according to their objectives and presented in an organized manner with general conclusions.

This article provides an exhaustive review of the fundamental aspects and emerging trends in numerical modeling of gas combustion in porous media. The modeling works published to date are reviewed, classified according to their objectives and presented with general conclusions. Numerical modeling of liquid fuel combustion in porous media is excluded.
