Our team is working on making work with chemistry data easier than it has always been! Modelling plasma systems in the complex gas environment usually mean dealing with reaction schemes containing tens of species and up to a thousand reactions. Incorporating such complex chemical schemes is usually an impossible task for spatially resolved (2D and 3D) plasma models due to the high computational cost. Many fluid solvers will struggle with over 50 reactions even in 2D. The Quantemol Plasma Chemistry Generator (QPCG) is the tool we are working on at the moment and it will help to build up reaction kinetics schemes for plasma modelling applications and reduce to account for only selected species of interest.
