CHEMKED-I
Chemked-I is a program designed for
working with thermodynamic and chemical kinetics databases. You can
create, extend and edit the databases.
The data are displayed in tables and easily handled. You can
alter the data, sort and select species and reactions
with particular properties, move the data from a database to other ones.
The program checks the data, and error messages are displayed. Chemked-I
provides numerical and graphical information on the thermodynamic
functions and the reaction rate constants. The data and charts can be
printed or exported to the clipboard or files. As a result
you will have checked and consistent databases with easy access to the
information.
Chemked-I incorporates a solver to solve problems of gas-phase chemistry.
The data from the databases are directly used for generating desirable
reaction mechanism that can be entered in the Chemked solver to get the
solution of the considered problem. Results of solution are species
concentration and gas temperature vs. time.
The maximum reaction mechanism size allowed for use in the solver is 300
species and 3000 reactions.
Using Chemked-I you can simulate
chemically reacting systems
at constant pressure and at constant volume. In spite of the limitations
the program allows you to solve a wide class of problems including simulation of
gas-phase chemical
reactors and chemical processes behind
shock waves.

Now we present Chemked-I 4.0 (Release Date: 10 October 2009). The program simulates gas-phase chemical kinetics at constant pressure and at constant volume.
