ThermoTransportDataReader

Load and process the thermodynamic and transport data for a gas, assuming LTE.

Module Contents#

class rizer.io.thermo_transport_data_reader.ThermoTransportDataReader(gas_name: str, pressure_atm: int, source: str, skip_missing_values: bool = False)#

Load and process the thermodynamic and transport data for a gas, assuming LTE.

LTE (Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium) means that thermal and chemical equilibrium are established. The data is assumed to be given at a fixed pressure.

Methods are provided to interpolate the data and plot it. The interpolations are linear, and out-of-bounds values take the value at the boundary.

Parameters:

gas_name (str) – Gas used for the thermo/transport data.
pressure_atm (int) – Pressure (in atm) for the thermo/transport data.
source (str) – Source used for the thermo/transport data.
skip_missing_values (bool, optional) – Whether to skip missing values in the data file (default is False).

Examples

Plot thermo data vs. temperature for a plasma of H2, O2 or N2 in LTE.

Plot mass enthalpy vs. temperature for methane and hydrogen.

Plot thermodynamic properties of H₂ vs. temperatures.

Plot thermodynamic properties of CH₄ vs. temperatures.

Plot transport data vs. temperature for a plasma of H2, O2 or N2 in LTE.

Plot electrical conductivity vs. temperature for a plasma of methane.

Plot transport data vs. temperature for a plasma of hydrogen.

Plot transport data vs. temperature for a plasma of methane.

load_data() → tuple[numpy.ndarray, Ellipsis]#

Load the data from the files.

Files are expected to be in ./data/transport.

The thermo/transport data file is expected to be a CSV file with the following columns:

Temperature [K]
Density [kg/m3]
Enthalpy [J/kg]
Specific heat [J/kg.K]
Viscosity [kg/m.s]
Thermal conductivity [W/m.K]
Electrical conductivity [S/m]

It is assumed that the data is sorted by increasing temperature. It is also assumed that the header is 3 lines long.

Returns:

Tuple containing the following arrays:

temperature: Temperature [K]
density: Density [kg/m3]
enthalpy: Enthalpy [J/kg]
cp: Specific heat at constant pressure [J/kg.K]
dynamic_viscosity: Viscosity [kg/m.s]
thermal_conductivity: Thermal conductivity [W/m.K]
electrical_conductivity: Electrical conductivity [S/m]

Return type:

tuple[np.ndarray, ]

compute_theta() → numpy.ndarray#

Compute the integrated thermal conductivity.

Notes

The integrated thermal conductivity is defined as:

\[\theta = \int_0^{T} \kappa(T') dT'\]

It is computed using the trapezoidal rule.
