Generating the PPDF Table

First, we will change the number of heat loss ratio points defined in the table:

Select the PPDF Equilibrium Table node.

In the Properties window, make sure that the Number of heat loss ratio points equals 1.

Change the Pressure of the mixture property to 101325 Pa.

Now define the fuel and oxidizer streams:

Select the Fluid Stream Manager > Fuel Stream node.

Change the Temperature of the stream property to 293 K.

Right-click on the Fuel Stream > Components node and select Add Fluid Stream Component > C3H8.

A new node named C3H8 will appear beneath the Fuel Stream > Components node.

Select this node and change its Mass Fraction property to 1.0.

Select the Fluid Stream Manager > Oxidizer Stream node and change the Temperature of the stream property to 293 K.

Right-click on the Oxidizer Stream > Components node and select Add Fluid Stream Component > O2.

Right-click on the Oxidizer Stream > Components node and select Add Fluid Stream Component > N2.

Two new nodes named O2 and N2 should now appear under the Oxidizer Stream > Components node.

Select the Oxidizer Stream > Components > O2 node and change its Mass Fraction property to 0.233.

Select the Oxidizer Stream > Components > N2 node and change its Mass Fraction property to 0.767.

The PPDF Equilibrium table set-up is now complete. To construct the table:

Right-click the PPDF Equilibrium Table node and select Construct....

The table creation will take a few minutes. Once this is complete, save the simulation and proceed to Setting Initial Conditions.
