CONVERGE includes a variety of tools to perform simplified
kinetics 
calculations and to manipulate and evaluate chemical kinetic 
mechanisms. Zero-dimensional and one-dimensional calculators
enable 
estimating the ignition delay and the flame speed of
mixtures using 
specified kinetic mechanisms. The mechanism merge and reduction 
tools allow combining and decreasing the size of mechanisms to 
facilitate CFD chemistry calculations. This workshop will
discuss the 
setup of these tools in CONVERGE Studio and strategies for
effectively 
using them with CFD simulations.  Participants will practice
using the 
setup menus for the various modules. 

***This lecture includes hands-on CONVERGE Studio practice.***
