What is Cantera?

================



Cantera is an open-source collection of object-oriented software tools for

problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and transport processes.

Among other things, it can be used to:



* Evaluate thermodynamic and transport properties of mixtures

* Compute chemical equilibrium

* Evaluate species chemical production rates

* Conduct kinetics simulations with large reaction mechanisms

* Simulate one-dimensional flames

* Conduct reaction path analysis

* Create process simulations using networks of stirred reactors

* Model non-ideal fluids



Cantera can be used from Python and Matlab, or in applications written in C++

and Fortran 90. A number of `examples of Cantera's capabilities

`_ are available in the form of

Jupyter notebooks. These examples can be tried interactively, in the cloud by

using the following MyBinder link:
