JH-suite

JH-suite (named according to Jaroslav Heyrovský) is a set of small codes compiled for both Windows and Android platforms enabling fast thermodynamic estimations (prediction of equilibrium constants, calculation of fusion enthalpy, atomic charges etc.), prevealingly based on empirical models published in literature during several past decades. Although the today´s routines in the field rely mainly on quantum chemical modelling, the older empirical procedures are still interesting due to (a) the concepts themselves (their linkage to the more recent theories), and especially, (b) almost zero computational demands. The program suite (developed in cooperation with Institute of Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Natural Resources, Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague) is offered as freeware with no garancy. However, any report on bugs, improvements ideas etc. will be welcomed (please send an e-mail to alan.liska@jh-inst.cas.cz).

Before use, please read the corresponding manual packed inside each zip file.

Windows version is compatible with any modern version of Windows (XP and later). On the other hand, it won´t run under DOS, even if using a 32bit extender.

Android version requires installation of X11-BASIC. The currently offered binaries work with version 1.25-48 and up. The installation directory in the Android device must be /mnt/sdcard/jh/[name of particular program]/, otherwise the program will crash. The easiest way of execution of any program (with .b extension) is from a suitable file explorer (e.g. Total Commander). The input / output / parameter files can be handled by any text editor (e.g. 920 Text Editor).

Structure of JH-suite

Currently, JH-suite consists of 41 individual codes enabling empirical estimations in the field of both inorganic and organic chemistry, from analytical equilibrium constants through rate coefficients to molecular properties and organic compounds characteristics.

The program is equipped by a simple GUI, which enables to choose the appropriate code for performing the desired calculation. All the project is based on X11-Basic which was chosen as a programming workbench in order to facilitate the code to run on both Windows and Android platforms. To display properly the individual input, database, parameter and output files, it is highly recommended to use Notepad++ (Windows) / 920 Text Editor (Android).
