The geometry dimensions look quite small. Did you check the Reynolds number to see if the flow is turbulent? Maybe it is not. 

The Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) combustion model is for turbulent flames. If the flow is laminar, then you need to use the "Finite-Rate/No TCI" option.

The 1st plot is most likely showing static temperature but you are plotting the total temperature.

The 1st plot seems to indicate that the chamber walls are cooled. Please check the paper.

Is the calculation converged? Please check the residuals values, global heat & mass balance using flux reports.
