Python interface for MIT AVL (Athena Vortex Lattice)

Python interface for MIT AVL (Athena Vortex Lattice)

Description

Currently implemented: * Geometry definition * Case definition * Running operating-point run cases * Results parsing

Not implemented (yet): * Mass definition * Eigen-mode analyses * Time-domain analyses

Installation

AVLWrapper can be installed from pip:

$ pip install avlwrapper

Or can be installed from Git:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/renoelmendorp/AVLWrapper@master

AVL (link) should be installed.

By default, the wrapper will check the current directory, the module directory and the system path. See Changing settings how to change the executable path to a custom location.

Usage

For an usage example, see example.py

Changing settings

To change settings, make a local copy of the settings file:

from avlwrapper import default_config
default_config.local_copy()

By default the wrapper will look for a configuration file in the working directory and module directory. If you would like to use a different configuration file, you need to give the path to the session:

from avlwrapper import Configuration
my_config = Configuration(path_to_file)
session = Session(..., config=my_config)
