Dear all,

I'm trying to simulate a RQL type of combustion chamber. However to achieve a physical flow pattern I should include a swirler at the entry. I read through different parts of the User's Guide but couldn't find a solution. As I understand it is possible in a 3D model but cannot find any information for 2D. Is it even possible in 2D to have a (sort of) swirling flow?

I'm using preheated air (800K) as oxidizer and methane (300K) as fuel. The combustion model I use is the non-premixed model with pdf-table. As turbulence model I use the RNG k-eps model.

Thanks in advance!
