In this paper, neural network (NN)-based models are generated to replace flamelet tables for subgrid modeling in large-eddy simulations of a single-injector liquid-propellant rocket engine. In the most accurate case, separate NNs for each of the flame variables are designed and tested by comparing the NN output values with the corresponding values in the table. The gas constant, internal flame energy, and flame heat capacity ratio are estimated with 0.0506, 0.0852, and 0.0778% error, respectively. Flame temperature, thermal conductivity, and coefficient of heat capacity ratio are estimated with 0.63, 0.68, and 0.86% error, respectively. The progress variable reaction rate is also estimated with 3.59% error. The errors are calculated based on mean square error over all points in the table. The developed NNs are successfully implemented within the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation, replacing the flamelet table entirely. The NN-based CFD is validated through comparison of its results with the table-based CFD.
