The CRECK Modeling Lab is looking for candidates for a PhD position for a research project in collaboration with Department of Energy on hydrogen combustion 🔥. The project aims at developing and optimizing new burners fed with hydrogen to enhance efficiency, ensure safety, and minimize pollutant emissions.
OpenSMOKE++ was used in OptiSMOKE++, a flexible toolbox for the optimization of chemical kinetics. The toolbox is the resultof a collaboration between the CRECK Modeling Lab at Politecnico di Milano and the Université Libre de Bruxelles. OptiSMOKE++ is described in a paper recently published on Computer Physics Communication with title: "OptiSMOKE++: A toolbox for optimization of chemical kinetic mechanisms".
OpenSMOKE++ was used for simulating the evaporation and combustion of isolated fuel droplets. The work is a collaboration between the CRECK Modeling Lab, Cornell University, University of San Diego California and NASA Glenn Research Center. The main results have been published on Combustion Theory and Modelling in a paper with title: "The role of composition in the combustion of n-heptane/iso-butanol mixtures: experiments and detailed modelling".
OpenSMOKE++ was used for simulating the evaporation and combustion of isolated fuel droplets. The work is a collaboration between the CRECK Modeling Lab, Cornell University, University of San Diego California, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories. The main results have been published on Fuel in a paper with title: "Simulating combustion of a seven-component surrogate for a gasoline/ethanol blend including soot formation and comparison with experiments".
Great News! The 40th International Symposium on Combustion will take place in Milano in July 2024. It is a real honor for CRECK Modeling Lab and OpenSMOKE++ members to be part of the organizing committee of the world most important event in the field of combustion!
