The TChem toolkit is a software library that enables numerica l simulations using complex chemistry and facilitates the analysis of detailed kinetic mode ls. The toolkit provide capabilities for thermodynamic properties based on NASA polynomials and species production/consumption rates. It incorporates methods that can selectively modify reaction parameters for sensitivity analysis. The library contains several functions that provide analytica lly computed Jacobian matrices necessary for the efficient time advancement and analysis of detailed k inetic models.
