where $H(T)$ is the enthalpy of a material or gas, $H_{\rm r}$ is the \ct{HEAT_OF_REACTION}, $T_{\rm ref}$ is the temperature at which the \ct{HEAT_OF_REACTION} was specified for, $\nu$ is a yield, and $H_{\rm adj}$ is a constant that forces the correct enthalpy to balance the reactions. During initialization, $H(T)$ for a material is initialized using the defined \ct{SPECIFIC_HEAT} or ramp. $H(T)$ for a gas is defined per the discussion in Sec.~\ref{gas_species_props}. No adjustment parameter is included for gases since typically pyrolysis is either producing a predefined species such as carbon dioxide or water vapor or it is producing a fuel species use on \ct{REAC}. For a predefined species, the enthalpy is known. When a non-predefined species is used on \ct{REAC}, FDS adjusts the species enthalpy so that the correct \ct{HEAT_OF_COMBUSTION} is obtained. This means it cannot be adjusted again to balance a material reaction.
