The code consists of an implementation of a novel tabulated combustion model for non-premixed flames in CFD solvers. This novel technique/model is used to implement an unsteady flamelet tabulation without using progress variables for non-premixed flames. It also has the capability to include history effects which is unique within tabulated flamelet models. The flamelet table generation code can be run in parallel to generate tables with large chemistry mechanisms in relatively short wall clock times. The combustion model/code reads these tables. This framework can be coupled with any CFD solver with RANS as well as LES turbulence models. This framework enables CFD solvers to run large chemistry mechanisms with large number of grids at relatively lower computational costs. Currently it has been coupled with the Converge CFD code and validated against available experimental data. This model can be used to simulate non-premixed combustion in a variety of applications like reciprocating engines, gas turbines and industrial burners operating over a wide range of fuels.
