Dear all, I am new in Cantera and I try to use the demo code flamespeed to calculate the flame property. The fuel is CH4, CO, N2 and H2O mixture. The initial...
Thank you very much Gokul. This is exactly what I was looking for. I already implemented it and it's working. Thanks again. Best regards, Peter ... ...
Why do you say these are not the same reaction? One is written in the reverse direction, but both are reversible. This is not a "bug" in my opinion, but a...
Hello, Your calculations don't look crazy. The reason is a high inlet gas temperature. Approximately, the adiabatic flame temperature increases as the...
Hello to everybody! I'm compiling the 1.7.0 version on cantera on a linux machine with gcc version 4.3.0. During the compilation I obtain the following error: ...
Hello, I was trying to run 1D flame calculations with the hydrogen mechanism of Connaire et al but the program had problems with the input. After spending some...
The problem is related to gcc version 4.3, since in this version the C++ header dependencies have been cleaned up. I solved the problem adding the standard C++...
Thank you Anatoli, I think you are right and the results I calculated were reasonable. On the other hand, the reaction starts very close to the inlet when the...
f.setRefineCriteria(ratio = 5.0, slope = 0.05, curve = 0.005, prune = 0.0) In the grid refinement critera what does ratio do? From what I understand prune...
I have been trying to implement cantera into my own program written in fortran 90/95. I am able to compile and link the program just fine but when I get...
Hey, I would like to find a demo or an example of the function FreeFlame in Matlab. I will really appreciate some help because I am not able to make it run in...
Hello all, I'm having some problems calculating free propagating flame speeds with the funtion FreeFlame in matlab. There is an example in Python with...
When one computes the the free-flame structure (say H2+air at PTN), the equilibrium temperature obtained is different from the true adiabatic flame temperature...
Is anyone in the group experienced in writing MATLAB MEX C/Matlab interface code? If so, and if you are interested in putting in a lot of work for free... see...
Hello, Last two days I was trying to solve this problem. Indeed, for a free hydrogen/air flame Cantera calculates temperatures substantially lower than...
Hello, Either additional point (x(j+2)+x(j+1))/2 will be added if the ratio (x (j+2) -x(j+1))/(x(j)-x(j+1) larger than the specified ratio or additional point...
Dear all! The matlab toolbox of the last Cantera version works only with Matlab version R2006b. In my department the version of Matlab installed in Windows PCs...
Dear all, I have spent all day trying to get Cantera up and running on my Mac (Mac OS version 10.4.11) and have not yet succeeded. I checked out Cantera from...
Anatoli, The convective terms are upwinded and the diffusive terms are central differenced. But this doesn't matter, if the energy equation was solved in...
Dave, An example showing the large discrepancy between equilibrium and equilibrium obtained with a 1D flame calculation can be observed by running the default...
Hi, i found this cool Cantera Toolbox for MatLab. I want to calculate a combustion with this tool. But i have no idea how to start. I know how to define a gas,...
Hello, I have just begun working with Cantera, and cannot get it to work. I use Cantera 1.6 + Matlab 7.1 + Python 2.4, as I have no access to a new Matlab...
Dear Cantera users, I am also interested in simulating the piston of an internal combustion engine using Cantera with Matlab. The issue about the piston...
