Batch ModeΒΆ
FrackOptima has the ability to run in batch mode. In batch mode, the user
specifies an input file in Python source format and optionally an output
directory. The simulation then runs and exports results in both .for
format, and a zip file of CSV files for each variable.
To get a project in the Python source format, first load the project in the FrackOptima GUI. Then, under File, click “Export to Python Source”.
To run in batch mode, use the frackoptima_batch.exe
executable. Here is an
example running a file called kgd.py
and outputting to a folder named
MyOutput
in the current directory:
C:\Program Files\FrackOptima\frackoptima_batch.exe kgd.py -o MyOutput
The output folder will contain the following:
- The results in a file called
Results.for
. This can be opened in the GUI to view the results. - A file called
Results.zip
that contains each variable in a CSV file. - A directory called
RawResults
. Users can safely ignore this directory; it is the work space for the simulator, and it holds temporary simulation files.
