Python Multiscale Thermochemistry Toolbox (pMuTT)
Project description
The Python Multiscale Thermochemistry Toolbox (pMuTT) is a Python library for Thermochemistry developed by the Vlachos Research Group at the University of Delaware. This code was originally developed to convert ab-initio data from DFT to observable thermodynamic properties such as heat capacity, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs energy. These properties can be fit to empirical equations and written to different formats.
Documentation
See our documentation page for examples, equations used, and docstrings.
Developers

Dependencies
Python3
Atomic Simulation Environment: Used for I/O operations and to calculate thermodynamic properties
Numpy: Used for vector and matrix operations
Pandas: Used to import data from Excel files
SciPy: Used for fitting heat capacities.
Matplotlib: Used for plotting thermodynamic data
Getting Started
Install using pip:
pip install --user pMuTT
Run the tests by navigating to the tests directory in a command-line interface and inputting the following command:
python -m unittest
The expected output is shown below. The number of tests will not necessarily be the same.
