... of the extremely large physical size of the internal combustion engines present in shipping vessels, experimental iterative development of the engine and fuel system is cost-prohibitive. Thus, the ability to perform combustion system development in a scaled platform that can be more easily operated and modeled...

...B. Lambert; G. Eckel; P. Le Clercq; M. Zahn; T. Ripplinger In this study, we developed an efficient computer-aided design tool for scaling combustor designs. From a limited number of fluid simulations, an original design is scaled while preserving most of the flow properties, using a multi...
