INCA

INCA is a state-of-the-art flow code. It is valid for a wide range of compressible viscous flow fields, including transonic aircraft, hypersonic high altitude vehicles, automotive intakes/manifolds, and reacting combustors. The incompressible flow module extends the range of applicability to low speed flows.

INCA solves the complete compressible or incompressible Navier-Stokes equations using an advanced implicit finite-volume procedure on multi-block, body-fitted, computational grids. The flow domain can be divided into coupled grid blocks to simplify both the generation of the grid and the application of boundary conditions. A variety of flexible boundary-condition types, equation-of-state options, turbulence models and chemistry models makes INCA applicable to most flow fields of interest. A parallel-procesing version of INCA is also available.
