Chemics

The Chemics package is a collection of Python functions for conducting calculations in the field of chemical and fluidization engineering. Source code for the package is available on GitHub and contributions from the community are encouraged.

Installation

The Anaconda or Miniconda distribution of Python is recommended for scientific computing. After setting up Python, the Chemics package can be downloaded and installed with the pip package manager:

pip install chemics

Usage

The example below imports the Chemics package then uses the rhog() function to calculate the density of a gas based on its molecular weight, pressure, and temperature.

import chemics as cm
cm.rhog(28, 170100, 773)

An example of calculating the terminal velocity of a particle according to the Haider and Levenspiel 1989 paper is shown below.

import chemics as cm

# Parameters
dp = 0.00016    # particle diameter [m]
mu = 1.8e-5     # gas viscosity [kg/(m s)]
phi = 0.67      # particle sphericity [-]
rhog = 1.2      # gas density [kg/m^3]
rhos = 2600     # particle density [kg/m^3]

# Haider and Levenspiel terminal velocity [m/s]
ut_haider = cm.ut_haider(dp, mu, phi, rhog, rhos)

More examples are available in the chemics-examples repository.
