This is a help menu to examine the commonalities between two mechanisms (regardless of whether in generated format or in CHEMKIN format). The final analysis gives a tree of corresponding isomers paired together. This information is separated into unique pairs, where only one isomer from each mechanism appears, single-multiple combinations, where one isomer in one mechanism can be matched in several in the other, or multiple-multiple, where multiple isomers exist in both mechanisms.
The main use of this menu is for the initial analysis of the generated and base mechanism to determine how they can be merged together. This is the first stage in forming the molecule correspondence table needed for find merged mechanism output.
Another use is the first, fairly primitive step, of determining commonalities between two mechanisms.
The procedure is based on reading in two mechanisms, either in CHEMKIN or generated format, and analysing for common isomers. The basic procedure is as follows:
