thermo directory.
The biggest change is the addition of the derivative routines
of the activity wrt mole fraction and mole number.
Also There is an addition of reportCSV() routine, which is
a method to create a comma separated file from ThermoPhase routines.
The rest are small issues.
from liquidTransportDevelop branch
The Exchange_current_reaction_ratecoeff_type method for
formulating reaction rate constants for exchange current
reactions has been ported into the main branch.
Fixed the InterfaceKinetics object so that we can
specify that a phase doesn't exist. If a phase doesn't exist,
species in that phase can't be reactants in the phase. Before,
this fix, they could be !?!!
This was because InterfaceKinetics objects use ThermoPhase
objects, which are intrinsic only. We need an extrinsic notion
that is in addition to ThermoPhase info in order to get this right.
reactions. Now the kinetics operator carries around information
that indicates whether a phase exists or not. If the phase exists
then the species in it can be consumed by the kinetics heterogeneous
operator. If it doesn't exist then species within the phase can
only be created by the kinetics operator.
Worked on Cantera's version control.
In the config.h file, we now write several forms of version
control information as preprocessor defines
CANTERA_VERSION = double quoted string id'ing the branch number
CANTERA_VERSION_MAJORNUMBER major number of Cantera as an int
Defines that are specific to the branch and that are assigned a 1. e.g.:
#define CANTERA_VERSION_18 1
#define CANTERA_VERSION_18_XXX 1
#define CANTERA_VERSION_18_LTD 1
In the Cantera.mak file, we write
CANTERA_VERSION = double quoted string id'ing the branch number
CANTERA_DEFINES = -DCANTERA_VERSION=@ctversion@
There are two primary methods in these classes:
McMillan() that computes the ratio of the porous transport rate
to the non-porous transport rate.
toruosityFactor() that computes the "tortuosity" component of this
ratio (the increase in the diffusion length scale).
The base class implements a general Bruggemann formulation and subclasses
implement a percolation theory models and Maxwell's model.
I did not put in copy constructors, etc., for these calsses yet.
