Hi,

There is an example in Forte tutorial which you can refer for guidance on sector modelling of Diesel engine combustion.

Chapter 2: Simulating a Diesel Engine Using a Sector Mesh

Also what is the current sector angle you are considering (how many nozzle holes are there in the injector). Since the simulation with full geometry is working - I'm assuming your chemistry file and chemistry setup should be correct.

What is the pressure and temp rise during the compression stroke and are the fuel getting vaporized completely ? These would help in figuring out the issue on why the combustion is not happening.
