[Global]
¶
The global section generally handles settings that affect the whole program.
xsec_path
str or list of str
Defines the path(s) that contain molecular cross-sections
e.g
xsec_path = path/to/xsec
xsec_interpolation
exp
orlinear
Defines whether to use exponential or linear interpolation for temperature
e.g
xsec_interpolation = exp
in_memory
True
orFalse
For HDF5 opacities. Determines if streamed from file (False) or loaded into memory (True)
Default is
True
e.g
in_memory = true
cia_path
str or list of str
Defines the path(s) that contain CIA cross-sections
e.g
cia_path = path/to/xsec
ktable_path
str or list of str
Defines the path(s) that contain k-tables
e.g
ktable_path = path/to/ktables
opacity_method
Either
xsec
orktables
Choose whether to use molecular cross-sections or correlated k method.
e.g
opacity_method = ktables
mpi_use_shared
True
orFalse
Exploit MPI 3.0 shared memory to significantly reduce memory usage per node
When running under MPI, will only allocate arrays once in a node rather than each process
Works on allocations that use this feature (i.e pickle and HDF5 opacities)
e.g
mpi_use_shared = True
