Guided industry project
Adiabatic flame temperature calculation using Python and Cantera
In this project Adiabatic Flame Temperature(AFT) calculation will be performed using coding language Python and in-build Suite of Cantera. Cantera is an open-source suite of tools for problems involving chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, and transport processes. So, the comparative analysis will be performed to compare the factors like time requirement, accuracy etc. The effect of number of carbon atoms on Adiabatic Flame Temperature will also be discussed.
