Cantera (software)

Cantera is an open-source chemical kinetics software used for solving chemically reacting laminar flows. It has been used as a third party library in external reacting flow simulation codes, such as FUEGO and CADS, using fortran, C++, etc. to evaluate properties and chemical source terms that appear in the application's governing equations. Cantera is developed by Prof. Dave Goodwin of California Institute of Technology. It is written in C++ and can be used from C++, Python, Matlab and Fortran.
