The forum shares open source chemical engineering softwares such as:
InnoSim - InnoSim is a free suite for physical properties estimation and process
equipment design and rating. It is intended for use by students, scientists and engineers
interested in chemical engineering and the related industries.
Calflur - Caflur is a tool for analyzing chemical reactors. It can generate a HTML file
with tables and graphics of Residence Time Distributions. It can calculate conversions
for both linear and non-linear systems, with and without flow model; and the parameters
for some non-ideal flow models (tanks in series, axial dispersion and combined models).
Well those are just 4 of them. There are lots more of open source chemical engineering
software. Visit the forum and learn more:

Welcome to the all-new Cantera code site! This site is currently under construction. We
are transitioning from a cantera sourceforge host to a google host. Please be patient with
the transition. When the transition is finished (mid August), we will post a general
message.
With Cantera's object technology, you assemble your architectural masterpiece (i.e
application program) from a set of very special bricks you pick up at the Cantera quarry!
Each "brick" (or object) represents some well-defined small component of the global
structure.
• phases of matter
• interfaces between these phases
• reaction managers
• time-dependent or steady reactor networks
o IC engine models
o CSTR reactor network
• One-dimensional flows
o Burner-stabilized flat flames
o Air plasma formed behind the bow shock on a re-entry vehicle during re-
entry into the Earth's atmosphere
o Adiabatic propagating flat flames
• Combustion
• Flames Structure
• Detonations
• Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage
• Fuel Cells
• Batteries
• Aqueous electrolytes
o Thermodynamics of brines
o Electrode reactions in aqueous environments
• Plasmas
o Atmospheric-pressure thermal plasmas
o Low-Pressure DC, RF, and Microwave Plasmas
o Laser-Created
Cantera 2.0 will add many new classes of objects, enabling Cantera to be used for many
new applications and enabling several exciting new ways to interface with matlab and
python. It's currently in its formative stages and is not working.
What is CAFLUR?
Caflur is a tool for analyzing chemical reactors.
It can generate a HTML file with tables and graphics of Residence Time Distributions. It
can calculate conversions for both linear and non-linear systems, with and without flow
model; and the parameters for some non-ideal flow models (tanks in series, axial
dispersion and combined models).
In addition, it can calculate the micromixing intensity. The graphics can be generated in
six different image formats, and be fully customized. The HTML results' report is also
fully customizable.
At this moment, I have not written a tutorial in english. Please contact me if you have
troubles with CAFLUR.
In Windows, versions earlier than 2.0 are available only in spanish and english, except
for version 1.01 that it is only in spanish.
In Linux, only version 2.0 it is available, and only in spanish. French, italian and english
translations coming soon.
MesoRD - Mesoscopic Reaction Diffusion
Simulator
General
About About
News
Screenshots and Movies MesoRD is a tool for stochastic simulation of reactions and diffusion [2].
MesoRDToolBox In particular, it is an implementation of the Next Subvolume Method [3,
Citations to MesoRD 4], which is an exact method to simulate the Markov process
and NSM corresponding to the reaction-diffusion master equation [5, 6, 7]. Since
Model Archive version 0.2.0 MesoRD also supports mean-field simulations.

Browse SVN reaction rates to be calculated using nearest neighbour subvolumes. This
allows for a correct description of the reaction rates when the size of the
