FLACS Validation

The CFD code FLACS has been extensively validated against experimental results at Christian Michelsen Institute (1980-1990) and Christian Michelsen Research (1990-2000), and GexCon R&D continues this work today.

The procedures for validation are currently being revised, and a more extensive description of our model evaluation protocol will be available in due time.

Meanwhile, much of the validation work is described in Publications, and an overall summary can also be found on the web pages of GexCon US.
