chamber is a reactive hydrodynamic modeling tool specifically designed for small arms interior ballistics research. Multiple equations of state and burn models are supported. chamber is an adaptation of the BKW, SIN, 2DL and 2DE codes in one package.

The HOM Equation of state functions have been validated for RDX (for HomSolid) and 9404 for HomSolid, HomGas and HomMixed. Validating these routines involved several fixes to the Linear Feedback solver. This validation is for compression; tension on the solids is still giving some convergence problems. Also, all input file parsing is now done by chamber's own custom parsing functions; libcfg+ has been dropped due to unsupported necessary functionality. This should speed up development of additional input features.
This release marks the first hard testing of the equation of state routines in chamber. HomMixed is generally converging but results currently differ from those being used for validation. In addition, basic support for the Forest Fire shock initiation burn routine has been added.
