Dear Foamers,

I have been trying to simulate a non-premixed combustion on the attached geometry. The fuel enters through the small centered pipe whereas the air, through the two others on the upper and lower side.
When I was working with FLUENT, all I needed to do was specify the initial conditions, run a steady state and use it as an initial condition for the transient simulation.
Now with OpenFOAM5.0 what happens is that even though I manage to get a stabilized flow, I can't seem to find a way to ignite the reaction.
The case I have based myself to follow was reactingFoam/RAS/SandiaD_LTS

I have looked through the forum, tried (unsucessfully) to install swak4foam to ignite it artificially, but I can't seem to get it done. Am I missing something here?

Thanks!

BC's
Fuel: CH4, 301K, 3m/s
Air: 343K, 10m/s (both holes)
