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...
Here's a darned simple MATLAB script to calculate equilibrium products in an insulated hydrogen-air bomb. You'll have to watch your peak temperatures closely...
Hi, When I use the ImplicitChem code on Linux platform, I get the following error. Has anyone encountered this error? chemcant.o: In function `main': ...
Alessandro, Cantera has not yet been ported to 64 bit machines. It looks like you need to change some compile flags to add -fPIC. But a bigger problem is that...
Niveditha, At some point, file Cantera/src/ImplicitChem.cpp was removed from the CVS repository. I can't remember why this was, so I have restored it. But...
Prof Goodwin, Thank you for your suggestion. I had to fix the Makefile.in in the directory Cantera/src and add a line to compile ImplicitChem.cpp which was...
I am trying to use the new heterogeneous chemistry in Cantera 1.5. I downloaded the latest version of Cantera, Cantera is installed, the MATLAB toolboxes are...
Well, as per Prof. Goodwin's message I guess Cantera doesn't do 2-D generalized calculations. However, you can certainly incorporate Cantera's chemistry engine...
I'm sorry, I fixed the last problem. Now I have a problem when I try to import my heterogeneous interface. My cti file reads: stoichiometric_solid(name =...
Tim, I don't know why 'stoichiometric_solid' is not being recognized, unless you are using an older version of Cantera. This used to be called 'pure_solid',...
Hi The problem is simple. There is a chamber ( diameter: 80 [mm] length: 300 [mm]). Inside, mixture: methane+Air (stoichiometry). Ignition : center chamber. I...
Dear Prof. Goodwin I have some difficulty with understanding solving process in OneD simulations runs in Python. I use class burner flame with the energy...
Hi, I'm trying to set up an engine cylinder simulation, and would like to incorporate inlet and exhaust valves. Is it possible to set the valve coefficient to...
I have successfully implemented the changes need in Cantera to model 1-D adiabatic flames, and thus predict laminar flame speeds. It seems to work very well,...
... Yes. Now I will be able to use Cantera like PREMIX. I need to calculate the flame speed of gas turbine fuels. Thanks and hope they will be in Cantera...
Hello, I have a question related to the input mechanism files that we use in Cantera I tried to use two files that are available. One is ethnaol mechnism file...
The previous email had the wrong subject. Hello, I have a question related to the input mechanism files that we use in Cantera I tried to use two files that...
Dear Cantera Users, I am trying to build a 64 bit version of Cantera on my SGI. Right now, I am stuck on trying to build a 64 bit version of Python. Can...
Prabhjot, If you are using the LLNL ethanol mechanism, the problem is that it does not have species 'c'. When I run your script in MATLAB, I get the following...
Maybe try the Python web site for tips, or Google. I think some work will be needed to get Cantera to run on 64-bit machines, but I am glad to see you are...
Courtesy of Karl Meredith, Cantera now supports adiabatic freely-propagating flames. The Python and Matlab hooks have not been done yet, so for now it can...
Hello, I am trying to install Cantera 1.5.4 with Cygwin. The configure script seemed to run ok and generated the appropriate Makefiles. However, when I type...
... Thanks Dave, Karl. I tried to build the flamespeed but got an error about missing header file: kernel/MultiPhaseEquil.h Which I could not locate anywhere...
That's a new file I haven't added to the repository yet, but it got included in header file "equilibrium.h" inadvertently. You can just comment out the...
