Hi

I want to get the individual specie molecular weights of all the species that was imported from my CHEMKIN file. I know the specie.H file contains a member for molWeight, but could anyone please tell me how exactly I can get the molWeight for each of the species that was imported?

Thanks

Hi,

we need more information. Where do you need the molecular weights? In the solver, the thermo-library ...?

Hi Christian

Sorry I should have mentioned it in the post - I need the molecular weights in the solver.

Thanks

Hi,

you need access to the mixture class.

In the non-reacting classes, you don't have this access. Therefore add a new function (dummy function) to psiThermo.H and redefine the same function in hePsiThermo. Here you return the correct value because hePsiThermo has access to the mixture class.

Regards,
Christian

Since you are using a 'basicMultiComponentMixture' (due to the CHEMKIN reader) you get this information without modifying the libraries. See my post here:

scalar Wspecie0 = composition.W(0);
scalar Wspecie1 = composition.W(1);
...

Check the file 'SpecieMixture.H' for more information.
