Check this example for OpenFOAM solver: https://develop.openfoam.com/Developmen ... rtmentFire

thank you kindly!
I was trying to avoid using early 20th century tech of coding
batch processing sheets of OpenFOAM! I am on it thou!

in the meantime FreeCAD "sim" of combustion "dies" in solving process after few seconds
without any information other then "something went wrong"
having no way to ignite the mix I try to boost temperature of gasoline to hypergolic levels?????

So, sim runaway had to cancel it.
Methink Multiphase selectiion has something to do with it??????

The multiphase option in cfdof-wb uses the interfoam solver (see controlDict file after case writing).
InterFoam is mostly used for free surface flow:

Actually addressing my problem?
the run-away condition was fixed by Changing "Time Step Control"/"Time Step" to 1.00 in CfdSolver
not sure how it got to be zero?

So the QUESTION STILL REMAINS?
How to program combustion, what solvers??? and what other setups?????

the solver that will do combustion is - reactingFoam -so now the question is can freeCAD handle it?
or will I have to recode OpenFOAM in CFDAnalysis????

Unfortunately CfdOF does not support reactingFoam. You would have to set up the case in OpenFOAM as suggested by @NewJoker, although writing and modifying a case created by CfdOF should make life easier than starting from scratch.

thank you kindly! it makes much easer to plow thru!
I will "write case" in "Analysis control"
then I will select "Edit" button and recode the sheets!
I will use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnykhP8olUk&t=744s as a guide!
Question will I have to mess with "CFD Mesh" edit???

He is running a 2D analysis. Have a look at his mesh.
You can do the same with cfdof. See boundary definition, constraint.
I will try to rebuilt the YT-example in FC.
