Description

While it's legal to define an RMG reactor w/o a termination time, running SA (at least via the CanteraConstantTP adapter) does expect to have a run time that is taken from the reactor's termination time.

Suggestion: After an RMG run, read the chemical run time from RMG and assign it to the termination time if the latter is None

Research direction

Trace the sensitivity-analysis path using the CanteraConstantTP adapter after an RMG run. Check how the reactor termination time and RMG chemical run time are read, then verify that a missing termination time is populated and that SA can run successfully without one defined in the reactor.
