Error about chemical reaction setting

Hi, everyone. When I set up a chemical reaction for ammonia decomposition with silicon dioxide (NH3+SiO2=0.5N2+1.5H2+SiO2), the following errors occurred during case operation:

Please refer to the Readme file on the required input format and make
the necessary corrections to the data file.

I don’t know what the problem is. I tried to expand the stoichiometric number (2NH3+SiO2=N2+3H2+SiO2) but it didn’t work. I want to know how to correct it? Or is this a bug?

This is my case, out.log contains the above error information. (Many gas phase reactions are used in my case. I have modified dimension_rxn in mfix/model/param_mod.f and nrrmax in mfix/model/rxns_mod.f to ensure that these reactions can operate normally. The case could work when reaction (NH3+SiO2=0.5N2+1.5H2+SiO2) is not set, so I am sure it is the problem of this reaction.)

Thank you very much!

I am not able to open your zip file. Please try with a 0.0 coefficient in front of SiO2:

Thank you very much! It works! I used the doc of 21.4 so I didn’t find this…
