Internal Combustion CFD
We currently use Solidworks to design high performance 2 cycle engines for racing karts. We would like to perform in cylinder CFD analysis while the piston is going from compression to expansion (moving boundary condition). We recently purchased Cosmos Floworks PE for other applications. I don't think this software handles moving boundaries. Any suggestions on which software or consulting companies we should look at?

Re: Internal Combustion CFD
Try AVL, or Ricardo Consultancy. AVL has incylinder flow capabilities.
Hope it helps. Regards Apurva |

Star-cd, Fire and Vectis seem to be the 3 codes to dominate this market.

try CD ADAPCO (STAR-CD)... it can model the moving boundary...

Re: Internal Combustion CFD
CFDRC http://www.cfdrc.com (now ESI Group) also have capabilities to do moving boundaries. But their customer support is pretty bad.
