CERFACS Chemistry Sharing knowledge for CFD chemical kinetics

Data table

The different mechanisms are classified according to :

  • the fuel they are mostly used with.
  • the oxidizer they were developed for.
  • their type (detailed, skeletal, ARC – Analytically Reduced Chemistry or Global – BFER, 2 step and 1 step).

The color code is the following :

  • these mechanisms are available freely with the adequate citation.
  • these mechanisms are not available directly and you must ask CERFACS to provide you the access. Go to the contact page if you need any of those.
