Command line tools

Once the package is installed, you have acces in your terminal to a CLI from the command ms_thermo:

Usage: ms_thermo [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

  ---------------    MS_THERMO  --------------------

  You are now using the Command line interface of MS-Thermo, a Python3
  helper for reactive multispecies computation, created at CERFACS
  (https://cerfacs.fr).

  This is a python package currently installed in your python environement.
  See the full documentation at : https://ms-
  thermo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  fresh-gas    description of a non-reacted kero-air mixture.
  gasout       Apply GASOUT actions to a CFD field.
  hp-equil     HP equilibrium using Cantera.
  tadia        adiabatic flame temperature for Kerosene.
  yk-from-phi  Mass fractions of a fuel-air mixture.

The tadia command

This returns the burnt gas temperature and mass fractions using a tabulation on Kerosene. The tabulation was created using CANTERA.

A typical usage is, for a stoechiometric fresh gas mixture at ambiant conditions:

>ms_thermo tadia 300. 101325 1.


The adiabatic flame temperature of a mix C10H22-air from tables is : 2312.99 K.

WARNING: If you do not have CERFACS's CANTERA installed in your virtual environment, this function will not be available!!

The yk_from_phi command

This returns the mass fractions of fresh gases according to chemical composition of the fuel and equivalence ratio.

Typical usage is :

>ms_thermo yk-from-phi 0.5 10. 22. 

Species     |    Mass fraction
------------------------------
fuel        |       0.466
N2          |       0.410
O2          |       0.125

The fresh_gascommand

This calculates the conservative variables of a Kerosene/air fresh gas mixture from primitive variables P, T and phi (equivalence ratio).

Typical usage is:

>ms_thermo fresh-gas 300 101325. 1.

rho       |  1.232 kg/m3
rhoE      |  266054.682 J.kg/m3

 N2       |  0.886 mol.kg/m3
 O2       |  0.269 mol.kg/m3
 KERO     |  0.077 mol.kg/m3

The gasoutcommand

This command is an example of a tool build on ms-thermo package for the setup of a CFD computation. It can apply several local alteration to a CFD field. The typical input file is :

#This is the tentative input file of a python Gasout.
# Enable YAML syntax highlighting in you IDE for the best experience.

# input files
inst_solut: ./solut_0003.sol.h5
mesh: ./solut_0003.mesh.h5
inst_solut_output: ./gasouted.sol.h5

Packages usage

The ms_thermo is also meant to be used in lager scripts/packages.

The state class

The state class handles a mixture of gases.

Typical usage for this class . The following script creates an initial mixture of fresh gases, then changes a subset of the field into hot gases.

>>> import ms_thermo as ms
>>> case = ms.State()
>>> print(case)

Current primitive state of the mixture
