Dear Foamers,

I am a new OpenFOAM user working on non-premixed combustion flames (diffusion flames). I was using Fluent before.
Currently, I am searching for all available combustion models in OpenFOAM and I noticed the following;

1. The models descriptions in OpenFOAM are not enough to figure out which model it is.
2. The current combustion models in OpenFOAM 1.6.x are missing many important models, however there are many universities and research groups already implemented theses models. Unfortunately they are not sharing their codes.

For the the first point, I think by more searching and reading the codes itself man can figure out the details of the solver which is one of the main OpenFOAM advantages.
The problem is the second point because it makes open source codes lose it's essence. That will make each new user or group decides to use OpenFOAM to build its own solvers and models which already done by others. I hope that these codes are shared somewhere and it was my fault to find it. Can anyone show me where can I find the combustion models codes especially for diffusion flames? and which models are never implemented in OpenFOAM before? Where are the active combustion groups? or should we make a one?!
