Detailed Description

The NASA 9 polynomial parameterization for a single species encompassing multiple temperature regions.

This parameterization expresses the heat capacity via a 7 coefficient polynomial. Note that this is the form used in the 2002 NASA equilibrium program. A reference to the form is provided below:

"NASA Glenn Coefficients for Calculating Thermodynamic Properties of Individual Species," B. J. McBride, M. J. Zehe, S. Gordon NASA/TP-2002-211556, Sept. 2002

Nine coefficients $(a_0,\dots,a_6)$ are used to represent $ C_p^0(T)$ , $ H^0(T)$ , and $ S^0(T) $ as polynomials in $ T $ :

$\frac{C_p^0(T)}{R} = a_0 T^{-2} + a_1 T^{-1} + a_2 + a_3 T + a_4 T^2 + a_5 T^3 + a_6 T^4$

$\frac{H^0(T)}{RT} = - a_0 T^{-2} + a_1 \frac{\ln(T)}{T} + a_2 + a_3 T + a_4 T^2 + a_5 T^3 + a_6 T^4 + \frac{a_7}{T}$

$\frac{s^0(T)}{R} = - \frac{a_0}{2} T^{-2} - a_1 T^{-1} + a_2 \ln(T) + + a_3 T \frac{a_4}{2} T^2 + \frac{a_5}{3} T^3 + \frac{a_6}{4} T^4 + a_8$

The standard state is assumed to be an ideal gas at the standard pressure of 1 bar, for gases. For condensed species, the standard state is the pure crystalline or liquid substance at the standard pressure of 1 atm.

These NASA representations may have multiple temperature regions through the use of this Nasa9PolyMultiTempRegion object, which uses multiple copies of the Nasa9Poly1 object to handle multiple temperature regions.

Nasa9PolyMultiTempRegion ( )

Nasa9PolyMultiTempRegion ( std::vector< Cantera::Nasa9Poly1 * > & regionPts )

Constructor used in templated instantiations.

Parameters:

regionPts

Vector of pointers to Nasa9Poly1 objects. These objects all refer to the temperature regions for the same species. The vector must be in increasing temperature region format. Together they represent the reference temperature parameterization for a single species.

Note, after the constructor, we will own the underlying Nasa9Poly1 objects and be responsible for owning them.
