Software description
PRISSMA is a Radiative Transfert Equation (RTE) solver based on the Discrete Ordinates Method for unstructured hybrid meshes. The solver is able to treat industrial geometries (with a high number of cells > 1 milions) and uses different spectral models : simple gray gas, WSGG, FS-SNBcK and SNBcK.
The last SVN release of the software contains three main elements:
- The parallel code: is the solver to be used on parallel multi-procesor architectures.
- The TOOLS: is a set of fortran programs, used to preprocess data for the main code and postprocess and interpret the outcoming results.
