This repository provides advanced tutorial cases which demonstrate the scaling capability and computational efficiency of the DLBFoam library, a radically fast detailed chemistry solver for OpenFOAM.
The detailed discussion and validation of the provided tutorial cases are openly available in Ref. [1]
The provided tutorial cases represent the following:
- Two-dimensional reacting shear layer
- Three-dimensional stratified combustion
- Engine Combustion Network Spray A
- Sandia flame D
As there are many more experimental benchmarks of various combustion phenomena that have not been tested, we would be happy to receive your contribution using the DLBFoam and reporting the speed-up and scaling effects against standard solvers.
If you use our tutorial cases, please cite the paper discussing these test cases [1], together with the original DLBFoam paper, also noted in Ref. [2].
