Hello all,

see that ParScale is in its beta, I would like to present my experience. I have implemented a 4 parallel reaction path with conductivity and thermal capacity variable with temperature, composition and LIGGGHTS type to simulate the reaction of wood pyrolysis with an de-hydratation reaction.
Here are the results compared to a matlab file who compute the same reaction path in the same conditions.
(the difference is given by the conductivity which is defined in a slightly different way).

I would like to thank you for your work and I hope this could be of some use to you all.

Thank you Riccardo,

this looks very promising!

We are working on a new release with some new features - if you want to donate code (or some test case), please feel free to send it to radl[AT]tugraz[DOT]at!

cheers
Stefan
