Cantera Function for Condensed Materials

Is there a command for homogeneous consensed reactions. I want to get combustion products for solid rocket propellants but as far as I understood equilibrate() command only works for gas phase.

Hi,

As of now equilibrate() command works for gas phase and functions for condensed material is not available.

Thanks.

Is there another command or way to create a combustion reaction between two solid phases?

Hi,

The Combustion Toolbox for Matlab provides a set of functions for computing basic parameter of gas fuel (density, Wobbe number, combustion velocity, gas mixture parameters, etc.) and gas fuel combustion parameters (combustion air volume, composition, volume and temperature of waste gas, etc.). Combustion Simulink block uses Combustion toolbox and provides simulation for fuel and air (composition, volume flow, temperature). Block output is waste gas (composition, volume flow, temperature). These all fuctionalities are supported. You can visit this link to see some scripts :

Hope it hels !

Hi,

As far as I understand this toolbox is for gas phase reactions. Is it possible to run a homogeneous condensed phase reaction with Combustion Toolbox?

Thanks

Hi,

As mentioned earlier mathworks doesnt support it as of now. This might come up in future release.

Thanks
