Detailed Description

Program to convert Chemkin-II-format reaction mechanism files to Cantera input format.

The resulting Cantera input file contains a definition of one ideal_gas entry that represents an ideal gas mixture corresponding to the Chemkin-II reaction mechanism. The file also contains Cantera-format definitions for each species and each reaction in the input reaction mechanism file.

Usage: ck2cti -i input -t thermo -tr transport -id idtag

The Cantera-format text is written to the standard output.

Parameters
inputChemkin-II reaction mechanism file to be converted. Required.
thermoThermodynamic property database. If the THERMO section of the input file is missing or does not have entries for one or more species, this file will be searched for the required thermo data. This file may be another reaction mechanism file containing a THERMO section, or a Chemkin-II-compatible thermodynamic database file.
transportTransport property database. If this file name is supplied, transport property parameters will be taken from this file and included in the output Cantera-format file. If this parameter is omitted, no transport property parameters will be included in the output.
ididtag. The ideal_gas entry in the Cantera-format output has name idtag. If this parameter is omitted, it will be set to the input file name without the extension. Since only one phase definition is present in the ck2cti output, this parameter is not required.
