Hetero_Ct C++ Installation Guide

Hetero_ct uses "scons", a python based build tool that is functionally similar to cmake.

Cantera installation

To install hetero_ct, first install Cantera from source.

The following command is used to compile Cantera on linux machine.

scons build python_package=full f90_interface=y doxygen_docs=yes system_eigen=y system_sundials=y sundials_libdir=/usr/lib64 python_cmd=~/anaconda3/envs/<env_name>/bin/python python_prefix=~/anaconda3/envs/<env_name>/lib/python3.7/site-packages extra_inc_dirs="/usr/include/eigen3"

Few points on the above Cantera compilation command

  1. System supplied sundials and eigen3 software packages are preinstalled. Sundials is installed in /usr/lib64 folder, and eigen3 is installed at /usr/include/eigen3. Note that Eigen3 is a header only package.
  2. Use python_cmd and python_prefix to specify the python command and the python library paths. In the above command, instead of system python, anaconda python is used. <env_name> represents the virtual environment name and python3.7 is the version of python used.

Hetero_ct installation

  1. Go to src folder and edit SConstruct file to specify the dependencies.

    • Edit CPPPATH variable to specify the location of eigen3 headers as well as cantera headers.
    • Edit LIBPATH variable to specify the location of sundials and cantera libraries.
    • Adjust the CCFLAGS and LINKFLAGS variables to make sure the compiler and linker options are consistent with those generated by scons during Cantera building stage.

  2. Run scons
