Product catalog summary
Introduction
ANSYS Chemkin-Pro is a leading simulation software for modeling complex chemical processes, particularly in combustion systems used in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and chemical processing. It provides accurate and robust kinetic models to explore design variables and their impact on performance and emissions.

Key Features
  • Reaction Path Analyzer: Offers a visual display of dominant reaction paths to aid in mechanism development and reduction.
  • Equivalent Reactor Networks (ERNs): Simulate real-world combustors and reactors for efficient emissions prediction.
  • Particle Tracking: Predicts particle formation, size distribution, and soot emissions.
  • CFD Flamelet Tables: Facilitates the creation of flamelet tables for CFD simulations.
  • IC Engine Models: Includes models for HCCI and Spark Ignition engines to analyze combustion effects and emissions.

Reaction Workbench
Enhances Chemkin-Pro by allowing the creation of surrogate fuel models and mechanism reduction to optimize simulation targets like flame speed and emissions.

ANSYS Energico
Links detailed combustion chemistry with CFD for accurate simulation of combustion behavior, aiding in the design of clean-combustion systems. It provides tools for emissions prediction and analysis of combustion stability issues like Lean Blow-Off (LBO).

Conclusion
ANSYS Chemkin-Pro and its extensions offer comprehensive tools for simulating and optimizing chemical processes, crucial for developing efficient and low-emission combustion systems.

Chemkin-Pro-2

Chemistry Simulation for More Efficient Designs Visualize reactions with the Reaction Path Analyzer. Understanding and predicting the effects of chemistry in a system are key to developing competitive products in transportation, energy and materials processing applications. As designers of gas turbines, boilers and piston engines strive to meet low-emissions regulations with ever widening fuel flexibility requirements, they must also maintain, or even improve, their system’s performance. Similarly, designing high-throughput materials and chemical processes with high yield and quality must be...

Chemkin-Pro-3

Zones used to define an Equivalent Reactor Network in a combustor Gain better understanding of low emissions combustion stability The Chemkin-Pro Extinction Model accomplishes fast, accurate calculations of the extinction strain rate used to determine a system’s combustion stability. This is important in premixed low-NOx combustion systems. Understand and predict particle formation The innovative Particle Tracking feature of Chemkin-Pro follows particle nucleation, growth, aggregation and oxidation. Two separate tracking approaches allow the prediction of average particle size and number density...

Chemkin-Pro-4

Combustor geometry and flow field imported from CFD Reactor zones created from CFD solution fuel. Master mechanisms can be automatically blended from component mechanisms, or submechanisms can be extracted, using Reaction Workbench Mechanism Utilities. For mechanism reduction, Reaction Workbench allows full user control over the automated process. Users select the specific simulation targets of interest (e.g., flame speed, ignition delay, NOx, soot, etc.) and the maximum allowable error for each target. Reaction Workbench automates the application of a series of mechanism reduction techniques...
