- importEdge(file, name='', surfaces=[])
- importInterface(file, name='', phases=[])
- Import an interface definition from input file 'file', and return
an instance of class Interface implementing this definition. If 'name'
is specified, the definition by this name will be imported; otherwise, the
first interface definition in the file will be imported.
The 'phases' argument is a list of objects representing the other phases
that participate in the interfacial reactions, for example an object
representing a gas phase or a solid.
>>> gas1, cryst1 = importPhases('diamond.cti', ['gas', 'solid'])
>>> diamond_surf = importInterface('diamond.cti', [gas1, cryst1])
Note the difference between the lists in the argument lists of these
two functions. In importPhases, a list of name strings is entered,
which are used to identify the appropriate definitions in the input
file to build the objects. In importInterface, the list is of the
objects that were built by importPhases. The reason these objects must be
given as inputs is that these objects will be queried when phase
properties (temperature, pressure, composition,
electric potential) are needed to compute the reaction rates of progress.
- importPhase(file, name='', loglevel=0, debug=0)
- Import one phase from an input file. If 'name' is specified, the
phase definition with this name will be imported, otherwise the first
phase definition in the file will be imported. If 'loglevel' is set to
a positive integer, additional information will be printed or written
to log files about the details of the object constructed.
- importPhases(file, names=[], loglevel=0, debug=0)
- Import multiple phases from one file. The phase names should be
entered as a list of strings. See: importPhase
