Cantera is an open-source suite of object-oriented software tools for problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and/or transport processes. The software automates the chemical kinetic, thermodynamic, and transport calculations so that the users can efficiently incorporate detailed chemical thermo-kinetics and transport models into their calculations. Cantera can be used from Python and Matlab, or in applications written in C/C++ and Fortran 90. Cantera also provides a limited number of solvers for time-dependent reactor networks and steady one-dimensional reacting flows.<BR><BR>
Cantera is currently used for applications including combustion, detonations, electrochemical energy conversion and storage, fuel cells, batteries, aqueous electrolyte solutions, plasmas, and thin film deposition.
