      SMILES data can be included in thermo portion of a mechanism or in a standalone Thermo file. The instructions on formatting are in the Reaction Workbench manual. An example of a thermo file that contains SMILES data is below. ( The full file can be found in your ANSYS v18.2 installation at: …ANSYS Incv182reactiondataC2_NOx.inp)
