Detailed Description

Class LTPspecies holds transport parameterizations for a specific liquid- phase species.

Deprecated:: To be removed after Cantera 2.4

Subclasses handle different means of specifying transport properties like constant, Arrhenius or polynomial temperature fits. In its current state, it is primarily suitable for specifying temperature dependence, but the adjustCoeffsForComposition() method can be implemented to adjust for the composition dependence.

Mixing rules for computing mixture transport properties are handled separately in the LiquidTranInteraction subclasses.

Member Function Documentation

◆ duplMyselfAsLTPspecies()

LTPspecies * duplMyselfAsLTPspecies ( ) const

virtual

Duplication routine.

(virtual from LTPspecies)

Returns: a copy of this routine as a pointer to LTPspecies

Reimplemented in LTPspecies_ExpT, LTPspecies_Poly, LTPspecies_Arrhenius, and LTPspecies_Const.

Definition at line 62 of file LTPspecies.cpp.

◆ setThermo()

void setThermo ( thermo_t * thermo )

inline

Set the ThermoPhase object, which is used to find the temperature.

Definition at line 93 of file LTPspecies.h.

References LTPspecies::m_thermo.

◆ setName()

void setName ( const std::string & name )

inline

Set the species name.

Definition at line 98 of file LTPspecies.h.

References LTPspecies::m_speciesName.

◆ setTransportPropertyType()

void setTransportPropertyType ( TransportPropertyType tp_ind )

inline

TransportPropertyType containing the property id that this object is creating a parameterization for (e.g., viscosity)

Definition at line 104 of file LTPspecies.h.

References LTPspecies::m_property.

◆ setupFromXML()

virtual void setupFromXML ( const XML_Node & propNode )

inlinevirtual

Set up the species transport property from the XML node, <propNode> that is a child of the <transport> node in the species block and specifies a type of transport property (like viscosity)

Reimplemented in LTPspecies_ExpT, LTPspecies_Poly, LTPspecies_Arrhenius, and LTPspecies_Const.

Definition at line 111 of file LTPspecies.h.

◆ getSpeciesTransProp()

doublereal getSpeciesTransProp ( )

virtual

Returns the vector of standard state species transport property.

The standard state species transport property is returned. Any temperature and composition dependence will be adjusted internally according to the information provided by the subclass object.

Returns: a single double containing the property evaluation at the current ThermoPhase temperature.

Reimplemented in LTPspecies_ExpT, LTPspecies_Poly, LTPspecies_Arrhenius, and LTPspecies_Const.

Definition at line 67 of file LTPspecies.cpp.

Referenced by SolidTransport::defectActivity(), SolidTransport::defectDiffusivity(), SolidTransport::electricalConductivity(), SolidTransport::ionConductivity(), and SolidTransport::thermalConductivity().

◆ checkPositive()

bool checkPositive ( ) const

virtual

Check to see if the property evaluation will be positive.

Definition at line 72 of file LTPspecies.cpp.

◆ getMixWeight()

doublereal getMixWeight ( ) const

Return the weight mixture.

Definition at line 77 of file LTPspecies.cpp.

◆ adjustCoeffsForComposition()

void adjustCoeffsForComposition ( )

privatevirtual

Internal model to adjust species-specific properties for the composition.

Currently just a place holder, but this method could take the composition from the thermo object and adjust coefficients according to some yet unspecified model.

◆ m_thermo

const thermo_t* m_thermo

Pointer to a const thermo object to get current temperature.

Referenced by LTPspecies_Poly::getSpeciesTransProp(), LTPspecies_ExpT::getSpeciesTransProp(), and LTPspecies::setThermo().

◆ m_mixWeight

doublereal m_mixWeight

protected

Weighting used for mixing.

This weighting can be employed to allow salt transport properties to be represented by specific ions. For example, to have Li+ and Ca+ represent the mixing transport properties of LiCl and CaCl2, the weightings for Li+ would be 2.0, for K+ would be 3.0 and for Cl- would be 0.0. The transport properties for Li+ would be those for LiCl and the transport properties for Ca+ would be those for CaCl2. The transport properties for Cl- should be something innoccuous like 1.0–note that 0.0 is not innocuous if there are logarithms involved.
