    Numerical predictions of the turbulent three-dimensional isothermal free flow in the near-exit region of an industrial burner model are presented and compared with detailed measurements of mean and turbulent flow fields. The geometrical flow configuration consists of a central axisymmetric jet surrounded by 16 circular jets, simulating the injection of oxygen in practical oxyfuel burners. A numerical procedure is outlined for the calculation of free flows comprising elliptic flow regions. By using a higher-order accurate quadratic upstream scheme for convection discretization, it was possible to minimize the effect of numerical diffusion. This was confirmed by an error estimation analysis. The predictions of the mean flow characteristics exhibit satisfactory agreement with the experiments.
