achinta Member achinta Join Date: May 2010 Location: Sydney Posts: 66 Rep Power: 16	Hello, I am using XiFoam to simulate premixed combustion. Could someone please tell me how to create a perfectly spherical ignition point. I thought that setting ignitionSphereFraction to 1 would do the work. But, OpenFoam is creating hemispherical ignition for any values of ignitionSphereFraction. How do we control the shape of the initial ignition region? Thanking you, Achinta
