This paper is devoted to premixed combustion modelling in turbulent flow. First, we derive a model for the turbulent flame velocity based on the observed self-similarity of the turbulent flame. The model uses the local flame brush width as a fundamental parameter and, therefore, we show how it can be retrieved for numerical implementation. The diffusive property of the brush width is treated in such a way as to theoretically let the brush have a clearly defined boundary propagating at finite velocity. The model, implemented in Star-CD CFD software through user programming, is then numerically tested on three configurations for which another model, the Turbulent Flame Closure model, is known to give very good agreement. Some effects of numerics are commented and results for both models are compared. While based on very different approaches the two models lead to substantially similar results. In this way, we have shown that the local brush width can effectively be used, giving an additional degree of freedom for premixed turbulent combustion modelling.
