Hello Everyone, I am trying to use Mixmaster, but when I click on the StartMenu, Programs, Cantera and then Mixmaster then a a window opens (like python...
There is probably some path problem. Try this: Start an interactive python session by typing "python" or "pythonw". From the Python prompt, type: from...
Hi, I am trying to solve species equations in 1-D. I see that the file ImplicitChem.h can be used to get the integrated value of the source term. Has anyone...
Dear Prof. Goodwin, I have OneDim Solve running in Python. When I try to simulate a burner-stabilized, premixed methane+7%toluene/air flat flame with my own...
Steve, There are several things you can try. Probably the best bet is to start with a simpler mechanism and generate a flame solution that can be used as the...
All, I have using Cantera to do 1-D flames in python, and would like to use C++ instead. BurnerFlame does not seem to exist in the C++ implementation. Also,...
Dave, When flame1.cpp updated, will it be posted in the Files section of Yahoo Groups or will it be updated in the CVS repository? Just wondering where to...
A new document has been posted to the Cantera sourceforge site. It describes how to use Cantera to evaluate properties of several pure fluids with full...
I obtained the updated flame1.cpp example from cvs, and I tried to run it. I got the following error messages for these lines. vector<Domain1D*> domains; ...
Hello all, to get an answer to my own question on getting bulk viscosities I made some modification on the cantera-sourcecode. I modified mixtransport.h and...
I figured out that it needs to be : vector<Domain1D*> domains; domains.push_back(&inlet); domains.push_back(&flow); domains.push_back(&surf); ... to 'class ......
Ulf, How is getViscosities different from getSpeciesViscosities? Note that these are the pure- species viscosities used in the mixture rule for the mixture ...
Karl, Yes that is right. I did do a bit of fiddling with this example, but haven't had time to finish updating it... it's on the list of things to do. Dave...
Dave, yes, you're right 'bulk' was the wrong word, what I mean was the pure species viscosity and thermal conductivity. Sorry for that. The difference between...
Hello, I am trying to carry out a simulation for ethanol hydrogasification. The kinetics, transport and thermodynamics data is taken from the llnl file which...
Hello Everyone, I wanted to ask a question related to reactor1.m which is in the matlab demos section in cantera. In the program we set the temperature to...
Surinder, This warning is printed when there is a discontinuity in the NASA polynomial fits at the midpoint temperature. As you have found, this can lead to...
The composition string specifies the relative molar amounts of each species, not the absolute number of moles. This is used to set the mole fractions by...
Hi, we are using CANTERA in a more-zones-model combustion chamber until now with very good results. We are interested now in the study of knocking in...
First of all thanks to everyone for answering the questions which I post here.. I also wanted to know where I can find the mechanism for starch. Surinder ... ...
New Cantera user here. Thought I'd toss this in as an FYI: I just (successfully) installed Cantera and Python using the Windows installer on Sourceforge. But...
I may have missed adding liquidvapor.cti tothe binary Windows distribution - thanks for letting me know. Regarding TCC, it went away when the linux machine...
Is there any documentation of the "substance_flag" function called by liquidvapor.cti? As each of the 5 calls are unique, there's got to be a file somewhere...
Hello, My question is related to constant temperature process. I know we can carry out a reaction at constant temperature if we set energy="off" in a reactor...
I am trying to implement a freely propagating flame in AxiStagnFlow. I have made the modifications to the U-velocity equation and the boundary conditions. I...
Karl, Yes, diag is used internally to specify whether a constraint is algebraic or not. An algebraic constraint like the one you are implementing should have...
The following should work (not necessarily the best way to do it but should work): Sum the product of the enthalpy_mole (or enthalpy_mass) multiplied by X (or...
