T-MATS: Flow Start, Cantera Library Block
The flow start block creates a T-MATS cantera formated flow element from specified inputs. To utilize this block a Cantera object must exist in the workspace as a global variable named fs, which may be created with the Cantera importPhase command. The fs variable must include all Species defined in the file canteraload.m.
