  We present a library of numerical models of cosmic-ray accelerating supernova
remnants (SNRs) evolving through a homogeneous ambient medium. We analyse
distributions of the different energy components and diffusive shock
acceleration time-scales for the models in various conditions. The library
comprises a variety of SNR evolutionary scenarios and is used to map remnants
with sufficiently known properties. This mapping constrains the respective
ambient medium properties and the acceleration efficiency. Employing the
library, we derive the ambient medium density, ambient magnetic field strength
and the cosmic-ray acceleration efficiency for models of Tycho and SN 1006
remnants and refine the ages of SNR 0509-67.5 and SNR 0519-69.0.
