|
|
|
The fields common to all ``reaction`` entries are:
|
|
|
|
``equation``
|
|
The stoichiometric equation for the reaction. Each term (i.e.,
|
|
stoichiometric coefficient, species name, ``+`` or ``<=>``) in the equation
|
|
must be separated by a space.
|
|
|
|
Reversible reactions may be written using ``<=>`` or ``=`` to separate
|
|
reactants and products. Irreversible reacions are written using ``=>``.
|
|
|
|
``type``
|
|
A string specifying the type of reaction or rate coefficient
|
|
parameterization. The default is ``elementary``. Reaction types are:
|
|
|
|
- :ref:`elementary <sec-elementary>`
|
|
- :ref:`three-body <sec-three-body>`
|
|
- :ref:`falloff <sec-falloff>`
|
|
- :ref:`chemically-activated <sec-chemically-activated>`
|
|
- :ref:`pressure-dependent-Arrhenius <sec-pressure-dependent-Arrhenius>`
|
|
- :ref:`Chebyshev <sec-Chebyshev>`
|
|
|
|
Reactions on surfaces or edges are automatically treated as
|
|
:ref:`interface <sec-interface-reaction>` reactions, and reactions that
|
|
involve charge transfer between phases are automatically treated as
|
|
:ref:`electrochemical <sec-electrochemical-reaction>` reactions, without the
|
|
need to specify the ``type``.
|
|
|
|
``duplicate``
|
|
Boolean indicating whether the reaction is a known duplicate of another
|
|
reaction. The default is ``false``.
|
|
|
|
``orders``
|
|
An optional mapping of species to explicit reaction orders to use. Reaction
|
|
orders for reactant species not explicitly mentioned are taken to be their
|
|
respective stoichiometric coefficients. See
|
|
`Reaction orders <https://cantera.org/science/reactions.html#reaction-orders>`__
|
|
for additional information.
|
|
|
|
``negative-orders``
|
|
Boolean indicating whether negative reaction orders are allowed. The
|
|
default is ``false``.
|
|
|
|
``nonreactant-orders``
|
|
Boolean indicating whether orders for non-reactant species are allowed.
|
|
The default is ``false``.
|
|
|
|
Depending on the reaction ``type``, other fields may be necessary to specify
|
|
the rate of the reaction.
|
|
|
|
.. _sec-arrhenius:

|
|
the pre-exponential factor :math:`A`, the temperature exponent :math:`b`, and
|
|
the activation energy :math:`E_a`, or a mapping containing the fields ``A``,
|
|
``b``, and ``Ea``. The following are equivalent::
|
|
|
|
{A: -2.70000E+13 cm^3/mol/s, b: 0, Ea: 355 cal/mol}
|
|
[-2.70000E+13 cm^3/mol/s, 0, 355 cal/mol]
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _sec-efficiencies:
|
|
|
|
Efficiencies
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Some reaction types include parameters for the "efficiency" of different species
|
|
as third-body colliders. For these reactions, the following additional fields
|
|
are supported:
|
|
|
|
``efficiencies``
|
|
A mapping of species names to efficiency values
|
|
|
|
``default-efficiency``
|
|
The efficiency for use for species not included in the ``efficiencies``
|
|
mapping. Defaults to 1.0.
