19.3. User Inputs

The general procedure for modeling chemical reactions is as follows:

  1. Create a new task of the appropriate type.

  2. Define the species, as described in Defining Chemical Species.

  3. Define the reactions, as described in Defining Chemical Reactions.

  4. Define a sub-task to solve the transport equation for each species, as described in Defining the Species Transport Equations and Defining a Closure Equation.
