Hi! I'm a fresher in converge. Nearly I have been working on the simulation about wankel engine combustion through converge. However, I have no idea about how to simulate the leakage in the engine. Whether the converge can do it? And what should I do generally?
Thanks a lot if there is someone help me.

Hello. There is an example Wankel engine case within CONVERGE studio, you can access it in Files > Load Example Case > Internal Combustion Engine > Wankel . This should provide a template for you to start working on your case. This example deals with the leakage using Sealing. Additionally if you are a beginner you can sign up for our training at events

Yeah, firstly, thank you for your answering. You said that I could deal with the leakage by sealing. I'm wondering whether what you want me to do is clicking the seal-> configuration button. Is that something I should using when I need to sealing the boundary?
Now I want to know how to simulate the circumstance that some gas will leak from the side seal and the apex seal in reality. Any method to make it?

Yes, you are right about setting up the seals. If you want to study the gas leak through the gaps, please include the gaps in your CFD domain and make sure you have enough grid refinement in the area to accurately capture the pressure gradient across the gaps

Thanks a lot about your answer, I will do something more to get deeper comprehension.
