An previous post presented Cantera, a package for thermodynamics, kinetic and transport calculations. Cantera is a function library with object-oriented features that can be use in C++, FORTRAN, MATLAB, and PYTHON applications. One of its main strength may be the functions for combustion problems. In this sense it is possible to do equilibrium and kinetic calculations.
Let us talk about an easy sample which you wish to calculate the adiabatic flame temperature for stoichiometric combustion of methane using air:

Welcome to Chemical Engineer Space!
This is a blog support for a free host about tips related to Chemical Engineering. Here I will try to share a little of my knowledge in this area, mainly in the academic point of view. Let me introduce myself: I am a Brazilian Chemical Engineer and nowadays I am taking my Masters in Modeling and Simulation of processes. Read more of this »
