Python package for running and analysing gyrokinetic simulations
Project description
# Pyrokinetics
This project aims to standardise gyrokinetic analysis.
A general pyro object can be loaded either from simulation/experimental data or from an existing gyrokinetics file.
In general pyrokinetics can do the following
- Read data in from:
Gyrokinetic input files
Simulations outputs
Write input files for various GK codes
WIP: Generate N-D pyro object for scans
WIP: Read in gyrokinetic outputs
WIP: Standardise analysis of gk outputs
At a minimum pyrokinetics needs the local geometry and species data. Example scripts can be found in the examples folder
## Installation
Install pyrokinetics with
`bash $ git clone https://github.com/bpatel2107/pyrokinetics.git $ cd pyrokinetics $ python setup.py install --user ` ## Code structure
Pyro object comprised of
- Equilibrium
- LocalGeometry
Miller
Fourier (to be added)
- Kinetics
LocalSpecies
Numerics
GKCodes
There also exists the PyroScan object which allows you to make a N-D parameter scan of Pyro objects
## Supports sources of Equilibrium data pyrokinetics currently supports * GEQDSK
Future formats to be added are * CHEASE
## Supported sources of Kinetic data
Sources of kinetic profile data currently supported are * SCENE * JETTO * TRANSP
Future codes to be add * SimDB * OMFIT
## Supported GK codes
The following gk codes are supported in pyrokinetics
CGYRO
GS2
Codes to be added in the future * GENE * TGLF
## Note on units
The pyro object uses standardised reference values to normalise the results. It will automatically handle converting to a GK codes standard units.
Note any scans/parameter changes made will be in standard pyro units so please account for this.

It is possible to change the reference units but proceed with caution
