Combustor Simulation

The goal was to perform 3D simulation of GE90 combustor, as part of full turbofan engine simulation. Requirements of high fidelity as well as fast turn-around time require massively parallel code. National Combustion Code (NCC) was chosen for this task as supports up to 999 processors and includes state-of-the-art combustion models. Also required is ability to take inlet conditions from compressor code and give exit conditions to turbine code.
