This release introduces new capabilities, plasma diagnostics, updated database (Burcat, January 2023), bug fixes, and performance improvements across the Combustion Toolbox framework.
1. New JumpConditionsSolver class for calculation of dimensionless Rankine–Hugoniot slopes A dedicated solver class has been implemented to compute thermochemical Rankine–Hugoniot jump conditions and the dimensionless RH slopes required in shock-turbulence interaction linear analysis ( Cuadra2024b, Cuadra2025a).
Combustion Toolbox v1.2.0 is now available! This release introduces a new turbulence module, a refactored equation-of-state system, significant performance improvements, and multiple usability enhancements across the entire ecosystem.
New Features and Enhancements 1.
Hypersonic flight involves a variety of complex flow phenomena that directly impact the aerothermodynamic loading of high-speed vehicles. The turbulence encountered during a typical flight trajectory influences and interacts with the shock waves on …
After months of refinement and debugging, I’m thrilled to announce the release of Combustion Toolbox v1.1.0! Along with the release, you can check out the preprint. For detailed documentation, visit our website.
The interaction of turbulence with shock waves significantly modulates the frequency and amplitude of hydrodynamic fluctuations encountered by aerospace vehicles in low-altitude hypersonic flight. In these high-speed flows, intrinsic compressibility …
The Combustion Toolbox (CT) is a newly developed open-source thermochemical code designed to solve problems involving chemical equilibrium for both gas- and condensed-phase species. The kernel of the code is based on the theoretical framework set …
I’m excited to announce that the next big update of our Combustion Toolbox, version 1.1.0, is coming soon!
One of the most significant changes in this next version is that the code will adopt the Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) paradigm, replacing the previously used procedural software architecture.
