G'day all,

to all the intake and exhaust aficionados out there, whos managed to couple 1D and 3D engine sim software out there. Coupling Wave and Vectis is easy enough, but I'm interested if anyone has managed to get Wave and Fluent talking to eachother. Searched the net and forum posts to no avail. Anybody has any ideas?

As well as VECTIS, WAVE will couple with Fluent, STAR-CD and FIRE. Note that the links to non-Ricardo codes are supported and documented by the code vendors.

For the case of Fluent, the coupling works by having Fluent as the parent (or lead) process and WAVE running as a child.
