.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.I ck2cti
|
|
converts a Chemkin-II-format reaction mechanism file to Cantera input
|
|
format. The resulting Cantera input file contains a definition of one
|
|
.B 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. The Cantera-format mechanism is written to
|
|
.I out-file
|
|
|
|
The parameters are as follows:
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --input=\fImech-file\fR
|
|
Chemkin-II reaction mechanism file to be converted. Required. This
|
|
file must contain the declarations of the elements and species, as
|
|
well as the reactions (if any). It may also contain the thermodyamic
|
|
and transport data.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --thermo=\fIthermo-file\fR
|
|
Thermodynamic 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.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --transport=\fItransport-file\fR
|
|
Transport 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, and no
|
|
TRANSPORT section was included in the main input file, no transport
|
|
property parameters will be included in the output.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --id=\fIphase-id\fR
|
|
Optional identification string, used to set the \fIid\fR field of the
|
|
\fBideal_gas\fR entry in the Cantera-format output. If this parameter
|
|
is omitted, it will be set to
|
|
.B gas
|
|
