Measured versus predicted reactor wall temperature. The full Stefan-Maxwell formulation for multicomponent diffusion is available. User specified polynomial fits for all transport properties and extensive database of properties.
Complete coupling is maintained between the gas phase and surface chemistry.
Special algorithms are available to treat highly stiff systems. Multi-media, conjugate heat transfer models with fully implicit formulation. Ongoing work is focused on implementing models for specular reflection from surfaces and developing a database of radiative properties for different surfaces and materials as a function of wavelength. Slip boundary conditions to account for non-continuum effects at low pressures. Multi-block formulation to enable optimal use of grid points and improved accuracy for simulation of complex reactor geometries.
