pressure in a constant volume chamber

      I am simulating a fuel spray in a constant volume combustion chamber using species transport. However, I have noticed that the pressure in the combustion chamber keeps rising even the fuel has not ignited. Is there a way to measure the pressure with respect to the combustion. In other words, I would like to measure the combustion pressure.


      Thanks a lot

      If it's constant volume and you're adding material the pressure has to go up?

      From the experimental data, the pressure of the constant volume remains almost constant until combustion occurs. However, what I am getting now is that the pressure is increasing from the start of the simulation.

      OK, so does mass escape from the experiment? What's different (think through properties & models)?
