PC-TAS: Phase Change Thermo-Acoustic Simulator

A simulator for classical and phase change thermoacoustic devices, implementing a Drag & Drop interface using MATLAB
Updated 26 May 2022
PC-TAS is a simulation software for 1D acoustics and thermoacoustics. Developed in the Water and Energy Technologies Laboratory, it is the only available simulation tool for phase-change thermoacoustics.
The software was written in MATLAB, and includes:
  • A robust Hybrid powell solver, outperforming MATLAB's nonlinear slovers (e.g fsolve)
  • An object oriented Structure, Highly modifiable
  • A friendly graphical user interface, including drag and drop capabilities, created using MATLAB App Designer
The app can be installed as a stand alone app or a MATLAB app, further instructions as well as Youtube tutorials can be found in the link
