Engine Modeling Features in STAR-CD
CD-adapco (London, UK) says that STAR-CD v3.24, the latest release of its CFD (computational fluid dynamics) code, is packed with new features aimed directly at the engine modeling world, including Extended Coherent Flame Model (ECFM) combustion models.
ECFM (ECFM and ECFM-3Z) extends CFD combustion modeling beyond the customary single mixture regime restriction of traditional combustion models. The ECFM models are equally valid whether the charge is “pre-mixed,” “partially mixed,” “non-mixed,” or any combination of these.
