Cantera C++ Reference

Use the sidebar to view detailed documentation of the C++ code, or use the following shortcuts:

• Overview of Cantera C++ Modules
• Index of Cantera C++ Classes

A topical overview is provided as follows:

• Objects Representing Phases (interface to Cantera core objects)
• Thermodynamic Properties (temperature, pressure, energy, ...)
• Chemical Kinetics (reactions, rates of progress, reaction path analysis, ...)
• Transport Properties (diffusion, viscosity, thermal conductivity, ...)
• Zero-Dimensional Reactor Networks (reactors, walls, flow devices, ...)
• One-Dimensional Reacting Flows (flames, flow domains, boundaries, ...)
• Physical Constants (universal constants, built into Cantera for convenience)

Details on the fundamental scientific theories used in the implementation of Cantera are located in the Science Reference Section.

The Cantera source code is hosted on GitHub.
