Chemical Kinetics Software
The following programs are provided for users interested in computing
explosion properties with realistic thermodynamics and detailed chemical reaction
networks with rate constants. Of particular interest for gaseous explosions are
models for detonation structure (ZND) and constant volume explosions (CV).
The links below will take you to more information and downloadable files.
Chemical Equilibrium Software
STANJAN was the creation of
Prof. Wm. C. Reynolds
who passed away on Jan 3, 2004. We no longer redistribute STANJAN and the
status of future releases or further development is unclear. Thanks, Prof. Reynolds.
Cantera contains a very nice graphical tool (MixMaster) for
carrying out simple equilibrium computations and you can use the open source distribution to
write special purpose equilibrium routines.
