armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.compare(lib1, lib2)[source]: Compare two XSLibraries, and return True if equal, or False if not.

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.compareNuclideXS(nuc1, nuc2)[source]

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.addDummyNuclidesToLibrary(lib, dummyNuclides)[source]

This method adds DUMMY nuclides to the current PMATRX library.

Parameters:

lib (obj) – PMATRX library object
dummyNuclides (list) – List of DUMMY nuclide objects that will be copied and added to the PMATRX file

Notes

Since MC2-3 does not write DUMMY nuclide information for PMATRX files, this is necessary to provide a consistent set of nuclide-level data across all the nuclides in a XSLibrary.

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.readBinary(fileName)[source]: Read a binary PMATRX file into an IsotxsLibrary object.

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.readAscii(fileName)[source]: Read an ASCII PMATRX file into an IsotxsLibrary object.

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.writeBinary(lib, fileName)[source]: Write the PMATRX data from an IsotxsLibrary object to a binary file.

armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.writeAscii(lib, fileName)[source]: Write the PMATRX data from an IsotxsLibrary object to an ASCII file.

class armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.pmatrx.PmatrxIO(fileName, xsLib, fileMode, getNuclideFunc)[source]

Bases: Stream

readWrite()[source]: Read and write PMATRX files.
