Hello,

I followed the procedure mentioned in the post below, by copying the mkl files into the chemkin directory and ran a reactor which is using the premix code. The reactor returns an error but the .out file is generated.

/forum/forums/topic/chemkin-user-subroutine-compiling-issues/#post-353966

The error states:

PREMIX: Error initializing gas-phase linkfile...C:\Users\asus\chemkin\samples2024R1\pre-mixed_burner\burner_stabilized\pre-mixed_burner__burner_stabilized_gas.asc

Could anyone tell where am I going wrong?

The Chemkin error "Error initializing gas-phase linkfile" typically indicates an issue with the initialization of the gas-phase chemistry in your simulation. This could be due to an error in the input file or a problem with the linking file used to transfer pre-processed information to the CHEMKIN-CFD module at run-time.

The Gas-phase Kinetics Pre-processor checks each input line for proper syntax and writes diagnostic messages if errors are encountered. If an error condition occurs, the Pre-processor continues to read and diagnose the input, but an error flag is written to the Linking File and the Gas-phase Kinetics subroutine CKINIT will not initialize the work arrays. Therefore, the input must be error free before any of the Gas-phase Kinetics subroutines can be called.

Other helpful diagnostics may exist in the gas.out file in case an error is encountered while processing the gas-phase chemistry input file and gas-phase thermodynamic data.
