6 Reacting Flows Our software incorporates a comprehensive suite of reacting flow-modeling capabilities. You can simulate gaseous reactions using either reduced or complex chemistry. Pollutant models are built in to allow easy and accurate pollution emission predictions for NO, SO and soot. You also can simulate surface reactions. All reaction models are fully compatible with all turbulence models. Multiphase Flows You can access a wide range of multiphase flow models to gain insight into your designs. You can model the behavior and interactions of a large number of phases — including any combination of liquid, solid and gas as well as granular flows — using either a mixture fraction or Eulerian model. You can track immiscible flows very economically using the volume-of-fluid (VOF) model. Particles, droplets breakup and evaporation are handled using the discrete phase model. Our tools also model phase changes. Other Advanced Capabilities Fluent includes advanced acoustics-modeling capabilities (such as the Ffowcs Williams– Hawkings acoustic analogy and computational aero-acoustics capabilities) to model propagation of acoustic noise. Dynamic/moving mesh capabilities allow you to model flows in or around moving parts. Assembly meshing enables a dramatic reduction in meshing time for typical CAD models by quickly extracting and meshing the fluid volume of a CAD assembly.

Pressure contours are plotted in airway. Temperature contours and streamlines from conjugate heat transfer simulation of PCB Fluent's advanced reacting flow models tackle a vast array of gaseous, coal and liquid fuel combustion simulations, such as this low NOx burner.
