Module deck 

The TOML input deck — a validated, typed document, not free text.

Why validation is separate from deserialisation

serde will happily accept volume_m3 = -2.0 or steam_to_carbon = 0: both are well-formed floats. A deck that parses but describes an impossible reactor is worse than one that fails to parse, because the solver will return a number for it. Deck::validate is therefore run by Deck::from_toml and is not optional — there is no path that hands back an unvalidated deck.

Unknown fields are rejected (deny_unknown_fields). A misspelled key that is silently ignored is how a deck ends up not describing the run someone thought it did.

Structs

CaseBlock

Case identification. Carries no physics.

Deck

A complete DOVER input deck.

FeedBlock

Inlet specification.

KineticsBlock

The fitted forward Arrhenius pairs — the only calibrated inputs.

RateBlock

One forward Arrhenius pair.

ReactorBlock

Reactor geometry and operating point.

SweepBlock

Sweep one variable across a range instead of running a single point.

Enums

DeckError

Why a deck was rejected.

Constants
