Hello, I am a PhD Student, and I am working on biomass gasification modeling. A colleague told me about Cantera, and described it as a powerful device for...
Dear Cantera users, I am a PhD student, and I am working on biomass gasification. I am new to Cantera, and I would like to receive some advice on how to...
Dear all, I have the following trouble using the Cantera toolbox for Matlab. I need to create a new solution object starting from an existing one. I've tried...
I am currently trying to figure out the hydrocarbon species of dissociated methane at roughly 2,000 K and 50 atm. Using MixMaster with Python, GRI-Mech 3.0, 1...
Alex, MixMaster only does single-phase equilibrium. You need to account also for solid carbon formation. Take a look at some of the Cantera Python demos to...
Professor Goodwin, I, too, am using the sim.sensitivity function. I'm using IdealGasMix with an H2/O2/N2O mechanism. I have calculated the sensitivities for ...
I have one related question. Is there any function in Matlab that performs the same function as sim.sensitivity does in Python? Thanks, Alejandro ... De:...
This is what I would do: Define a new solution object, then set its properties using the properties of the existing solution, like this example for ...
Lorenzo, I am also interested in the kinetics of biomass gasification and pyrolysis. The biggest challenge will be coming up with a kinetic mechanism. Most...
Hallo, I am trying to simulate a stagnation-flow CVD problem using cantera running under windows xp with EPython version and i get such a syntaxerror, may be...
Hi all, I am just starting with cantera and I would like to do an oppoded flow simulation using premix flames. In this case, I would like to have an inlet with...
The main problem is that the *.cti file of the solution object is not known at priori and it can not be obtained by any methods of the Solution class. Thank...
Hello all, I'm looking into doing some optimization of/sensitivity calculations regarding thermo-chemical parameters for an SOFC simulation. It would be...
Hi Cantera users I have a bit of a problem which puzzles me. With cantera (1.6r3 on windows and Linux) with python 2.4 when I create a gas object at standard...
Hi, Yes internal energy can be negative. It's an arbitrary scale based on a standard. For example, The standard used by the NIST database is based on the...
The Kintecus chemical simulation software available at http://www.kintecus.com/ has a mechanism available for it that may be useful to you. Kintecus is based...
Dear cantera users/developers, since some time I am struggling with a Cantera/Matlab interface problem that has been previously discussed here without...
Dear Cantera Users, I am studiying chemical engineering at TU Berlin and I plan to use cantera for simulation of combustion. Therefore I start calculating the...
Hi users, can anyone tell me the reason why in this example first a hydrogen/air mixture is used and not directly the methane/air mixture? is there a mechanism...
Hi! I am using cantera in MATLAB to calculate kinetics. I've already made some experiences in converting CK-Mechanisms with ck2cti and importing them with...
Andrew, Thanks for that link. I'll have to look into kintecus a little more. It looks like Kilpinen et. al have done a fair amount of work with biomass....
Hi everybody, in former posts the same error is already mentioned. To solve the problem there was the suggest to change to MATLAB 7.4.0 (R2007a), because of...
Hi, I was able to carry out a ck2cti step and an import from the base C++ level within Cantera for the Howard soot mechanism. I will try the matlab import...
Hi, I was able to take that Howard soot mechanism and carry out the following steps within matlab (linux): Ck2cti('rxnfile.txt', 'thermofile.txt') Largemech =...
Hello, everyone, I try to use cantera model some peroxide liquid phase reactions. Does anyone have some document or modeling samples for the liquid fluid ...
Hi Rico, I was able to run all of the matlab tutorial problems using a linux setup with the current cvs version of Cantera. I used the following programs: ...
Hi Sebastian, I was able to reproduce the error that you are seeing in the Mixture.m function, using the current CVS version of Cantera, with Matlab 7.4 on a...
Hey! I 'm a new user of Cantera and I would like to compare global kinetic mechanisms for a ch4/o2 flames. In this way, I would like to know if it is possible...
