The COMPACT program can handle:
- Cartesian or cylindrical coordinate systems. A special blocking-off technique is used for representing
irregular boundaries.
- Complex flow fields which may be steady or unsteady, Newtonian or nonNewtonian, laminar or turbulent,
incompressible or compressible.
- Any mathematical model of turbulence. (The k-e model is built in.)
- Gravitational, rotational, electro-magnetic, and other body forces.
- Any variation of density, viscosity, conductivity, etc. with temperature, concentration, and pressure.
- Any number of chemical species, which may react.
- Gas-particle (or droplet ) flows.
- Any prescription of boundary conditions including nonlinear ones.
- Conjugate heat transfer.
- Distributed resistances.
- Phase change (melting/freezing).
- Thermal radiation in an absorbing-scattering medium.
- Given velocity or pressure at the boundaries.
- Periodically fully developed flows.
- Heat and mass transfer in porous media.
- Mass sources and sinks.
