Summary0003523: Chemistry with PLOG is not recognised by reactingFoam
DescriptionI have noticed that chemical kinetic mechanisms with PLOG coefficients are not read in OpenFOAM. I believe this functionality should be included, since many new kinetic mechanisms use these coefficients.
Steps To ReproduceUsing a mechanism with PLOG coefficients in reactingFoam, etc.

> I believe this functionality should be included

Have you checked the functionality in OpenFOAM to see if "PLOG" is supported? I am not familiar with this term, perhaps the functionality is provided under a different name.

PLOG is a relatively new methodology that includes a list of coefficients for the Arrhenius equation depending on the pressure, as explained in http://engine.princeton.edu/modelreduction/PLOG-documents/PLOG-software_distribution.pdf . So far I did not find any mention to PLOG in the OpenFOAM documentation. It seems to me that it is not very hard, at least in terms of formulation, to implement, and it is not hard to interpolate values for individual reactions by hand. In my case I want to run a simulation with a full mechanism containing hundreds of such reactions, so that to do all the interpolations will for sure be time consuming.

OK, then you could either implement it yourself or secure funding of us to do it for you.
