WAVE - Fast accurate solvers and physical models
WAVE enables accurate 1D engine digital twins reliant on three aspects:
- Physical models capable of correctly capturing in 1D the complexity of 3D flow, thermal and combustion phenomena occurring in internal combustion engines
- An accurate discrete solver providing correct solutions for the resulting equations and flow network
- Proven processes for accurate calibration of physical models
