When detailed, accurate chemical kinetics are included, supercomputers are necessary for the numerical solution of fluid dynamics equations. In the present study, the combustion of methane at the surface of a catalytic plate will be studied numerically, in parallel with an experimental program supported on other monies. In this manner, validity of the models for such phenomena will be tested in a generic fashion, providing a leap forward in predictive combustion techniques. Reliable combustion predictive techniques would relieve tomorrow's designers of the burden and expenses of the traditional "cut and weld" approach. This is especially true of catalytic reactions, as they have the potential for a more efficient control of combustion in automobile and gas turbine engines.

当包含详细、准确的化学动力学时，超级计算机对于流体动力学方程的数值求解是必需的。 在本研究中，将对甲烷在催化板表面的燃烧进行数值研究，同时进行其他资金支持的实验计划。 通过这种方式，将以通用方式测试此类现象模型的有效性，从而实现预测燃烧技术的飞跃。 可靠的燃烧预测技术将减轻未来设计人员传统“切割和焊接”方法的负担和费用。 催化反应尤其如此，因为它们有可能更有效地控制汽车和燃气涡轮发动机的燃烧。
