Cantera.org Website Review

Cantera is an open-source suite of tools for problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and transport processes. Cantera automates the chemical kinetic, thermodynamic, and transport calculations so that the users can efficiently incorporate detailed chemical thermo-kinetics and transport models into their calculations. Cantera utilizes object-oriented concepts for robust yet flexible phase models, and algorithms are generalized so that users can explore different phase models with minimal changes to their overall code. Cantera is currently used for applications including combustion, detonations, electrochemical energy conversion and storage, fuel cells, batteries, aqueous electrolyte solutions, plasmas, and thin film deposition. The tutorials linked below will get you started using Cantera on your own machine. Cantera can be used online in Jupyter Notebooks via the Binder service! Try it out now! We have a number of examples demonstrating the use of Cantera in some of our interfaces. Installing & Compiling Instructions to install pre-built Cantera binaries or to build A description of the equations that Cantera solves, including equations of state, energy and mas* conservation, and chemical Docu*entation for the clas*es and functions that make up Cantera. Cantera is developed by a team of volunteers, and we’re always looking for new team members. If there is a feature you want added, a bug that needs to be fixed, or even just a typo in the docu*entation, changes from the community are always welcome.
