Getting Started

Getting Started#

Three steps are required to implement a working CATHY model of a specific case study (see fig. below), namely pre-processing, processing, and post-processing, and the following steps are necessary to create the flow model:

  1. Create the input files for the pre-processor hap

  2. Run the pre-processor hap

  3. Create the input files for the processor CATHY

  4. Perform the simulation by running the processor CATHY

  5. Run the post-processing functions to extract and view results

Getting started

Create a project#

This will download automatically the source file from the gitbucket.

from pyCATHY import cathy_tools
from pyCATHY.plotters import cathy_plots as cplt
simu = cathy_tools.CATHY(dirName=path2prj)

Update pre-processing files#

simu.update_prepo_inputs()

Run preprocessor#

simu.run_preprocessor(verbose=True)

Run processor#

simu.run_processor(verbose=True)

Show outputs#

cplt.show_vtk(unit="pressure", timeStep=1, notebook=False,
           path="./my_cathy_prj/vtk/")
