Using Python to Solve IVODEs

This is the second video in the Solving IVODEs Supplement to SCoRE, a Self-Study Course on Reaction Engineering (https://buffalobadger.github.io/SCoRE/). SCoRE is based on the online book, “Reaction Engineering Basics” (https://buffalobadger.github.io/RE_Basics/). This video describes how to use the SCoRE utility function, solve_ivodes, to solve sets of IVODEs. It then solves the set of IVODEs from the example introduced in the first video. 0:00 Intro 0:53 The SCoRE Utility Function, solve_ivodes 2:09 Python Code for Solving IVODEs 3:28 Arguments for solve_ivodes 5:10 Calling solve_ivodes 5:34 solve_ivodes Return Values 7:07 Python Derivatives Functions 8:28 A Solving IVODEs Example 9:06The Master Script 9:31 The Derivatives Function 11:12 The BSTR Function 13:00 The Deliverables Function 13:37 Performing the Calculations I hope you found this video to be informative.
