4.13.3.1. Example: Methane Combustion¶
\[\text{CH}_4 (g) + 2\text{O}_2 → \text{CO}_2 (g) + 2\text{H}_2 \text{O}(g)\]
Note
Heat of reaction is automatically calculated (default).
NMAX_g = 4 ! No. of gas phase species
Species_g(1) = "CH4 ANHARMONIC " ! Methane
Species_g(2) = "O2" ! Oxygen
Species_g(3) = "CO2" ! Carbon dioxide
Species_g(4) = "H2O" ! Water Vapor
Species_Alias_g(1) = "CH4" ! Methane
Species_Alias_g(2) = "O2" ! Oxygen
Species_Alias_g(3) = "CO2" ! Carbon dioxide
Species_Alias_g(4) = "H2O" ! Water Vapor
