With Cantera’s object technology, you assemble your architectural masterpiece (i.e application program) from a set of very special bricks you pick up at the Cantera quarry! Each “brick” (or object) represents some well-defined small component of the global structure.

Some of the types (or classes) of objects Cantera provides represent

  • phases of matter
  • interfaces between these phases
  • reaction managers
  • time-dependent or steady reactor networks
    • IC engine models
    • CSTR reactor network
  • One-dimensional flows
    • Burner-stabilized flat flames
    • Air plasma formed behind the bow shock on a re-entry vehicle during re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere
    • Adiabatic propagating flat flames
