Hello everybody,
I was trying to write chem.inp for 9 Species 33 reactions. But while running the case I encountered the thread below: (OF231)
--> FOAM FATAL ERROR:
Third body not present on both sides of reaction on line 38

From function chemkinReader::lex()
in file chemistryReaders/chemkinReader/chemkinLexer.L at line 1293.

FOAM exiting
For additional information, i have included the chem.inp file along with this thread.
Thank you, in advance!!!

Should thou run chemkinToFoam first?

See https://www.openfoam.com/documentati...kinToFoam.html

and the Sandia Flame D tutorial?

Thank you for your suggestion. I tried chemkinToFoam <chemFile> <thermoFile> <newChem> <newThermo>. However, it gives same error as aforementioned.

To be more specific, I extracted the combustion mechanism from the paper and wrote it in chemkin format. Can you please check it once. (Sorry, for incomplete info at first post)

I have uploaded the chemkin and therm file along with combustion mechanism considered.

Possibly it helps to try smaller reaction mechanism first. Good luck.

Thank you!!! I figure it out. what was creating the compilation error.

What was the error? Having similar issue and wondering what worked for you.
