This is the Python version of RMG - Reaction Mechanism Generator - a tool for automatically generating kinetic models of chemical reaction mechanisms, developed primarily by researchers in Prof. Green's research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Details can be found at http://rmg.sourceforge.net/ or by emailing rmg_dev@mit.edu
To install, there are various dependencies:
- Python (versions 2.5 and above are known to work)
- Cantera (1.8 works)
- ...a few more
To install, you have to compile the Fortran and C++ extensions (actually, building the C++ is optional but greatly speed things up). To build the extensions do:
rmg/source$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
or use the Makefile:
rmg/source$ make
You may find that the GNU Fortran compiler gfortran helps: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries
