Hi Dave I have used chemkin for several years, but are slowly trying to change my platform to cantera, and am indeed impressed with the work you have done. I...
Cantera has a new input file format, designed for specifying both single-phase and multi-phase problems. At least, it WILL have the new format as soon as...
So, supposing I want to create two gas mixtures in Matlab, with initially identical properties. The naive way to do this is as ... 300 ... 600 ... 600 What's...
Brooks - As you've discovered, a copy operation in Matlab of a Cantera object is a 'shallow' copy operation, because the Matlab object really just holds a...
Dave - Thanks for the confirmation. And, yes, in the simple example I gave, constructing the two gasses independently is certainly just as simple as copying...
Brooks - I would recommend that you consider changing your code to avoid making multiple copies of class Solution objects. The reason is that these are ...
Dave - Thanks for the suggestion; that does seem a reasonable way of doing things, and should work for what we need. (Also, it occurs to me that it might be...
Cantera 1.5.0 is now available at the SourceForge site. What's new: -- surface chemistry - reversible or irreversible reactions - coverage-dependent rates;...
Hello,Dave & group -- The demos seem broken -- eg, [root@compute python]# python2 < flame1.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 12, in ? ...

Dear Dave After upgrading both my Windows and Linux distribution of Cantera, I get an three error messages, when I try to run MixMaster. The errors are: could...
The problem is not in your installation, but that I forgot to change the file type in MixMaster to the new Cantera input file type. Here's the fix: run a...
Dear Dave, Where to download cantera 1.5 for Windows? At the SourceForge site, I can only see v1.5 for unix dated on Aug 25. Thanks, Yi J. ... PC, I ... tested...
Dave, I cannot find the file "readme.txt" in the Matlab folder to tell me installation instructions for matlab. Please advise on Matlab setup. Thanks, Dan...
The Cantera source distribution has been updated, and a PC zip version is now posted too. A problem with the initial guess for npflame1.py has been corrected,...
In the new release of Cantera (1.5 and 1.5.1) Mixmaster cannot read the flame simulation solutions written in XML files, the comma separated files are OK. Is...
Dear Prof. Goodwin, some of my chemkin-input files are producing the following error while converting to xml: Traceback (most recent call last): File...
Ulf, My guess is that you have a species name that has a colon (':') in it. The statement that produces the error message implicitly assumes that no species...
Hi, I'm a graduate student from Wright State Univerisity in Dayton, Ohio and i'm having diffuculty on installing the most recent version of Cantera on Windows...
Sean, I don't know what the problem is you are having with MixMaster. I just installed Cantera on a PC running Windows XP Home Edition and MixMaster ran. You...
Matt, You have run into the problem of the documentation getting ahead of the implementation. Those features didn't quite get into version 1.5.1; hopefully...
Dear Dr. Goodwin, I just installed cantera(1.5) and python on my windows computer. As I wanted to test it, I received the following error message: Traceback...
Hi Dave- I work for Dr. Dibble at UC Berkeley, and I'm having trouble running the equilibrate command for constant T&P for a phi=1 in Cantera 1.5. I'm using ...
David, phi = 1 is often a problem, because the equilibrium composition changes so sharply at this point. This is particularly true at low temperatures, like...
The file _cantera.pyd should be all you need. It looks to me like you have installed Cantera somewhere other than in the site_packages directory that is the...
