/**
 * Class Reactor is a general-purpose class for stirred reactors. The reactor
 * may have an arbitrary number of inlets and outlets, each of which may be
 * connected to a "flow device" such as a mass flow controller, a pressure
 * regulator, etc. Additional reactors may be connected to the other end of
 * the flow device, allowing construction of arbitrary reactor networks.
 *
 * The reactor class integrates the same governing equations no matter what
 * type of reactor is simulated. The differences among reactor types are
 * completely specified by the attached flow devices and the time-dependent
 * user-specified boundary conditions.
 *
 * If an instance of class Reactor is used directly, it will simulate an
 * adiabatic, constant volume reactor with gas-phase chemistry but no surface
 * chemistry. Other reactor types may be simulated by deriving a class from
 * Reactor.  This method allows specifying the following in terms of the
 * instantaneous reactor state:
 *
 *  - rate of change of the total volume (m^3/s)
 *  - surface heat loss rate (W)
 *  - species surface production rates (kmol/s)
 *
 * See the [Science Reference](../reference/science/reactors/controlreactor.html) for
 * the governing equations of class Reactor.
