armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.labels module

Reads and writes region and composition label data from a LABELS interface file.

LABELS files are produced by DIF3D/VARIANT. They are very similar in structure and format to CCCC files but are not officially in the CCCC documents.

The file structure is listed here:

       RECORD TYPE                        PRESENT IF
       ===============================    ================
       FILE IDENTIFICATION                ALWAYS
       SPECIFICATIONS                     ALWAYS
       LABEL AND AREA DATA                ALWAYS
       FINITE-GEOMETRY TRANSVERSE         NHTS1.GT.0 OR

Examples

>>> labelData = LabelStream.readBinary("LABELS")
class armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.labels.LabelsData[source]

Bases: armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.cccc.DataContainer

Data structure containing various region, zone, area, nuclide labels.

This is the data structure that is read from or written to a LABELS file.

class armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.labels.LabelsStream(data: armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.cccc.DataContainer, fileName: str, fileMode: str)[source]

Bases: armi.nuclearDataIO.cccc.cccc.StreamWithDataContainer

Class for reading and writing the LABELS interface file produced by DIF3D/VARIANT.

Notes

Contains region and composition labels, area data, half heights, nuclide set labels, alias zone labels, control-rod model data, and burnup dependent cross section data.

Create an instance of a Stream.

Parameters
  • fileName (str) – name of the file to be read

  • fileMode (str) – the file mode, i.e. ‘w’ for writing ASCII, ‘r’ for reading ASCII, ‘wb’ for writing binary, and ‘rb’ for reading binary.

readWrite()[source]

This method should be implemented on any sub-classes to specify the order of records.
