Опис
Короткий огляд:equilibrium-c (eqc) is a program for computing the composition of gas mixtures in chemical equilibrium. In typical usage, the program is given a known thermodynamic state, such as fixed temperature and pressure, as well as an initial composition of gaseous species, and computes the final composition in the limit of a large amount of time relative to the reaction speeds. eqc includes a database of thermodynamic properties taken from the literature, a set of core routines written the C programming language to solve the equilibrium problems, and a Python wrapper layer to organise the solution process and interface with user code. Dependencies are extremely minimal, and the API is designed to be easily embedded in multi-physics codes that solve problems in fluid dynamics, combustion, and chemical processing. In this paper, I first introduce the equations of chemical equilibrium, then spend some time discussing their numerical solution, and finally present a series of example problems, with an emphasis on verification and validation of the solver.
