Function adas.run_adas312

Runs the adas312 adf21/adf22 extraction code.

Parameters

adf26 : str

full name of ADAS adf26 population tabulation file

nlow : int, optional

lower n-level for beam emission transition

nup : int, optional

upper n-level for beam emission transition or n value for the excited n-level population if mlow is not specified

izimp : int, array

impurity atomic number

outfile : str

full name of output adf21 or adf22 file

Returns

code : int

success code

Notes

If nlow and nup are specified a beam emission file is produced (adf22/bme). If nup only is specified a beam density file is produced (adf22/bmp). If neither is specified a beam stopping file is produced (adf21/bms).

Calls a fortran executable code and communicates via a bi-directional pipe connected to stdout.
