Abstract
The Los Alamos turbulent reactive flow researchers, our modelers, and simulation code developers have succeeded in providing the engine research and development community an encompassing, robust, accurate, and easy-to-use software for engine modeling or simulations. This software is now known as the fearce Toolkit. In this paper, we discuss the physics present in the engine by discussing the methods we have employed to solve the model equations within the toolkit. Provided is background on what has been developed recently at LANL for internal combustion engine modeling.
