VORPAL Tools

Use complementary VORPAL applications and the VORPAL test suite to fine-tune your VORPAL simulation experience. VORPAL Studio and VorpalView applications, as well as the VpTests series of VORPAL sample input files, are available for free to VORPAL users.

VORPAL Studio

VORPAL Studio is a stand-alone window application developed to assist users in forming input files for use with the VORPAL plasma simulation code. It is an editor and validator that has built-in functions and graphical components that help VORPAL users to create well-formed input files.

VorpalView

Visualization made easy!

VorpalView, a free application provided by Tech-X, gives researchers a tool that makes visualizing data from VORPAL easy. 1D, 2D, and 3D plots of particle data, field data, and simulation geometry can be viewed in a simple to use GUI. Images can be saved to share with colleagues, and animations can be created showing how the simulation evolves over time.

VpTests

VpTests is a series of sample VORPAL input files provided as-is for the benefit of VORPAL users. You can use the test files as input examples or for testing code. The version number of each VpTests download file corresponds to the VORPAL release to which it applies -- for example, test code for VORPAL 2.2.0 is VpTests 2.2.0.
