CFD-FASTRAN Thermo-Chemistry Module

CFD-FASTRAN employs an advanced general finite rate chemistry, and thermal non-equilibrium capability. The salient features of the module include:
  • Two databases for thermodynamics, including curve fit database for 300K to 6000K, and spectroscopic database for thermal non-equilibrium
  • A model for general finite rate reactions that handles an arbitrary number of species and reactions
  • Multiple energy modes that include thermal equilibrium and two-temperature thermal non-equilibrium
  • A surface chemistry model that allows fully catalytic or Sticking Coefficient options

The CFD-FASTRAN thermo-chemistry module has been demonstrated and used for a number of complex applications including high-speed missiles, entry vehicles and reusable launch vehicles applications.
