Update NASA polynomial and thermdat creation functions #2

Closed wittregr closed 5 years ago

wittregr commented 6 years ago

The current polynomial fitting function in the thermochemistry code is limited. Other version of the code by Lym and Wittreich have better functionality. We need to combine the best of these codes and create a better version for the thermochemistry code. Jon Lym's code is the best to date and should be a good starting point.

Referencing done using Least Squares Method (based on @wittregr's code). For fitting NASA polynomials, T_mid evaluated for each species (based on my previous code). IdealGasThermo and SimpleHarmonicThermo use ASE (based on my previous code) but it is flexible enough that we can make our own models if necessary.

Are there any other features from the old codes that need to be implemented?
