regular-mesh-plotter 0.0.2

A Python package for creating publication quality plots of regular mesh tallies with the underlying geometry

A minimal Python package that plots 2D mesh tally results with the underlying DAGMC geometry

Installation

pip install regular_mesh_plotter

Mesh results in the form of Numpy arrays or OpenMC.tally objects can be plotted with a single API call.

A Matplotlib.pyplot object is returned by all functions so one can make changes to the legend, axis, colour map etc. However some key options are accessable in the function call directly.

There are additional options that allow

• rotation of the mesh tally results
• rotation of the DAGMC geometry slice
• saving the plot as an image file
• specifying contour lines TODO
• changing axis and colour bar labels
• changing colour scale applied
• truncation of values
• The plane_normal of the DAGMC geometry

The resulting plots can be used to show dose maps, activation, reaction rate and other mesh tally results.

Example 4 shows how to rotate the underlying DAGMC geometry and mesh tally. This is sometimes necessary as the slice and mesh can get out of alignment when changing the
