What is Cantera?

Cantera is an open-source collection of object-oriented software tools for problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and transport processes. Among other things, it can be used to:

  • Evaluate thermodynamic and transport properties of mixtures

  • Compute chemical equilibrium

  • Evaluate species chemical production rates

  • Conduct kinetics simulations with large reaction mechanisms

  • Simulate one-dimensional flames

  • Conduct reaction path analysis

  • Create process simulations using networks of stirred reactors

  • Model non-ideal fluids

Cantera can be used from Python and Matlab, or in applications written in C++ and Fortran 90. A number of examples of Cantera’s capabilities are available in the form of Jupyter notebooks. These examples can be tried interactively, in the cloud by using the following MyBinder link:
