STAR-CCM+ is not currently capable of producing internally-generated PPDF Flamelet tables. However, it does contain facilities for importing pre-generated PPDF tables or constructing them from flamelet library data produced by the DARS package. In this tutorial, the latter method will be used.
Before we can construct the table, the directory containing the flamelet library files must be copied into your working directory:
The parameters displayed in the Properties window control the accuracy and size of the look-up table. Their default values are suitable for this tutorial so no changes are necessary
The PPDF look-up table will be constructed from the flamelet data files in directory ppdf. This will take a few minutes.
Note that the species stored in the flamelet libraries will now be listed under the Multi-Component Gas > Gas Mixture > Gas Components node.
No further specification of species or reactions is required since all necessary information is contained within the table.
