2.2.3. Surface-Coverage Dependent Enthalpy of Surface Species

The enthalpy of surface species can be specified to be dependent on surface coverage by entering a block of data starting with HFCOV within a block of thermodynamics data that is being specified for surface species. Coverage-dependent coefficients are a subset of the thermodynamic data, and are specified at the end of the surface thermodynamic data input. The linear coverage-dependent coefficients are explicitly specified under the HFCOV block, as shown below. The required input for each line consists of the species (species_name) whose enthalpy is dependent on the second mentioned species coverage (species_name), and the coverage-dependent coefficient. The coverage-dependent coefficients must be specified in units of Kelvin.
