We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

What is the relation between the detailed chemistry calculation and the flame propagation model?

      ANSYS Forte’s SI engine capability employs both a flame-propagation model (using the G-equation approach) and detailed chemistry. The G-equation determines where the flame resides at each time step and a chemical-equilibrium assumption is used on the flame front. Everywhere else, detailed chemistry is employed. In this way, we can predict knocking from auto-ignition outside of the flame front (e.g., in the “end gas”) due to compression by the flame propagation. Forte’s G-Equation model accommodates multi-component fuels and is fully integrated with Forte’s detailed kinetics solvers.
