A framework for conducting pore network modeling simulations of multiphase transport in porous materials
Project description
VERSION 3.0 of OpenPNM is now out. All the examples on the website are now using the features and idioms of V3. For a description of the main changes please see our recent blog post.
Overview of OpenPNM
OpenPNM is a comprehensive framework for performing pore network simulations of porous materials.
More Information
For more details about the package can be found in the online documentation
Installation and Requirements
pip
OpenPNM can be installed using pip
by running the following command in a terminal:
pip install openpnm
conda-forge
OpenPNM can also be installed from the conda-forge repository using:
conda install -c conda-forge openpnm
[!WARNING]
For compatibility with ARM64 architecture, we removedpypardiso
as a hard dependency. However, we still strongly recommend that non-macOS users (including users of older Macs with an Intel CPU) manually installpypardiso
viapip install pypardiso
orconda install -c conda-forge pypardiso
, otherwise OpenPNM simulations will be very slow.
For developers
For developers who intend to change the source code or contribute to OpenPNM, the source code can be downloaded from Github and installed by running:
pip install -e 'path/to/downloaded/files'
The advantage to installing from the source code is that you can edit the files and have access to your changes each time you import OpenPNM.
OpenPNM requires the Scipy Stack (Numpy, Scipy, Matplotlib, etc), which is most conveniently obtained by installing the Anaconda Distribution.
Asking Questions and Getting Help
Github now has a Discussions function, which works similarly to stack overflow. Please post your question in the Q&A category so devs or users can provide answers, vote on accepted answers, improve on each other's answers, and generally discuss things. Most importantly, all answers are searchable so eventually, once enough questions have been posted and answered, you can find what you're looking for with a simple search.
Contact
OpenPNM is developed by the Porous Materials Engineering and Analysis Lab (PMEAL), in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
The lead developer for this project is Prof. Jeff Gostick (jgostick@gmail.com).
Acknowledgements
OpenPNM is grateful to CANARIE for their generous funding over the past few years. We would also like to acknowledge the support of NSERC of Canada for funding many of the student that have contributed to OpenPNM since it's inception in 2011.
