how to create initial condition ( solution.xml) in counter_flow for biodiesel fuel?
 
Dear Foamer

i am new user of Open Foam and my master thesis is related to bio diesel combustion in industrial burner.
i would like to use flamelet model for combustion in openFoam.
i installed :
1) Cantera 2.0.0
2)Cantera-CounterflowFlame
3)FlameletFoam

for running FlamletFoam for my Fuel i need the scale dissipation rate tables.
for creating these tables, i have to run ./flamelet in Cantera-CounterflowFlame.
the ./flamelet need three files : mechanism (mech.xml), boundary condition ( input.txt) and initial condition(solution.xml). so i implemented mechanism file by cantera and can change value of input.txt file but i do not know how to create solution.xml file with my fuel.

i would be appreciate if someone share their knowledge and experience in this regard.

Best regard
Farhad
