- 7.11. Laminar Burning Velocity
- 7.12. Turbulent Burning Velocity
- 7.13. Extended Coherent Flame Model (ECFM)
- 7.14. Residual Material Model
- 7.15. Spark Ignition Model
- 7.16. Autoignition Model
- 7.17. Phasic Combustion
- 7.18. NO Formation Model

The following sections outline the basis of the implementation of combustion modeling in CFX. First, the transport equations for energy and the components are revisited, then the chemical reaction rate computation is described, and finally, the computation of the rate of progress of a chemical reaction is explained in the context of the Eddy Dissipation and Finite Rate Chemistry Models. Extinction is modeled by setting the reaction rate locally to zero.
