About AgniCycle

Built by Researchers,
for Researchers

AgniCycle builds browser-native simulation tools that bring research-grade engineering physics to anyone with a web browser — no installation, no license fees.

Make research-grade simulation accessible.

High-fidelity engineering simulation has historically been locked behind expensive commercial software, institutional licenses, and steep learning curves. AgniCycle is changing that.

Every tool we build runs entirely in your browser — no downloads, no setup, no waiting for IT. The underlying physics is the same that powers peer-reviewed research: validated thermodynamic models, spray dynamics equations, electrochemical cell models, and CFD post-processing workflows.

Our goal is simple: if you can open a browser, you should be able to run a combustion simulation.

Peer-Validated Physics

Every equation traces to published, peer-reviewed combustion and thermodynamics literature. Not simplified — the real thing.

Zero Barrier to Entry

Browser-native, zero install, no license. Open a tab and start simulating in seconds — from any device, anywhere.

Built for Real Workflows

Tools built by active researchers who use them in their own work. Not academic demos — production-quality simulation interfaces.

Three different people, three different reasons

A student building intuition, a researcher pre-screening a hypothesis, and an engineer scoping a contract all land on AgniCycle for different reasons — and all get something real.

Students

Build real intuition by changing a slider and watching the physics respond — no license, no install, no campus HPC queue.

Researchers

Pre-screen a hypothesis or a parameter sweep before committing hours of CONVERGE or OpenFOAM compute time.

Industry Engineers

Get a defensible first-order answer the same day you ask the question — before scoping a full simulation contract.

Who's Building This

DK
Dr. Dhananjay Kumar
Founder & Developer · Combustion Researcher

Dr. Kumar is a combustion researcher at the Engine Research Center, University of Wisconsin–Madison, USA, and an engineer who built AgniCycle out of a genuine need for fast, accessible simulation tools that don't require a university license or a two-day install. Every tool on this platform reflects workflows he uses in his own research — thermodynamic engine modeling, spray dynamics, battery electrochemistry, and CFD post-processing.

A thermodynamic cycle, drawn honestly

Every element of the AgniCycle mark means something. It isn't decoration — it's a diagram.

  • The flame — Agni. Sanskrit for fire, the root of our name. Combustion sits at the center of everything we build, so it sits at the center of the mark.
  • The clockwise ring. On a pressure–volume diagram, a cycle traced clockwise produces net work — the universal signature of an engine. Traced counter-clockwise it would be a refrigerator. The arrows run clockwise on purpose.
  • The blue base. Real flames burn blue at the bottom — the premixed reaction zone, the hottest and cleanest part of combustion. It also happens to be our brand teal.
  • The temperature layers. A bright yellow-white core low in the flame (the luminous zone), deepening to orange-red at the tip where gases cool — the colors are in the physically correct order.
