Integer Input Parameters
The main heat release code is treated as one subroutine so it can be used in a wide number of applications. As a result, the authors have encompassed the input data (such as engine geometry) into arrays that are fed directly into the subroutine. There are two distinct arrays: one for integers/logicals and the other for double precision variables. On this page you will find a description of the integer/logical array variables.
