PMCToolbox is an extension of Cantera (https://github.com/Cantera/cantera) for reactive flows in porous media.
For install instructions, see
install_instructions_Mac.txt
install_instructions_Ubuntu.txt
For Windows, install Ubuntu in WSL and follow the install instructions for Ubuntu.
Example cases for combustion in porous media as well as validation cases are located in
PMB_example_cases/
Details of the implemented numerical methods and models can be found in the section below.
Equations, model description, and numerics can be found in the Github wiki (work in progress -- see Combustion and Flame paper for now).
