after-treatment exhaust pipe and catalyst systems

Gunter

Hello,

It is possible to reproduce the results and developed standard analysis using star-ccm+ for catalyst after-treatment systems using Thiele modulus, effectiveness factor and Biot number. We have upgraded from star-cd to starccm+ and used field functions + auto export for the FEA analysis. We are cracking on!

See the following links for the definitions:

We think of applying the analysis also to biochemical systems like in the following example:

Has anyone used star-ccm+ for biochemical systems?

Thank you
