Documentation for the Chemical Equilibrium Program Package CHEPP
A program package has been developed that calculates chemical equilibrium
and thermodynamic properties of reactants and products of a combustion
reaction between fuel and air. The package consists of the following four
parts: 1) A program for calculating chemical equilibrium. 2) A database that
contains thermochemical information about the molecules, which comes from
the GRI-Mech tables. 3) A GUI that allows the user to easily select fuels,
fuel/air ratio for the reaction, and combustion products. 4) A set of
functions designed to access the thermochemical database and the chemical
equilibrium programs. The program package is validated with respect to how well it can reproduce
results shown in the standard literature. The thermodynamic properties for
the individual molecules and the results from
the equilibrium calculation all agree with the results shown in the
literature. There is almost perfect agreement, between the results
produced by the program package and those shown in the book by Heywood,
when comparing the thermodynamic properties of the mixture of equilibrium
products.
