Supports design and modeling of experiments at major laser and pulsed power facilities: |
| |
 |
National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Livermore National Lab |
 |
OMEGA Laser Facility at Univ. of Rochester |
 |
OMEGA-EP Laser System at Univ. of Rochester |
 |
Laser Megajoule (LMJ) near Bordeaux, France |
 |
ORION Laser System near Aldermaston, UK |
 |

|
 |
Supports convenient generation of grids
for a variety of 2-D and 3-D primitives, as well as pre-configured
cylindrical hohlraums and halfraums, and tetrahedral hohlraums. |
 |
Provides capability for surface
removal (e.g., drilling holes in cylinders). |
 |
Conveniently provides views from diagnostic
ports or any user-specified position. |
 |
Provides easy-to-use target building capability.
Object positions and orientations can be specified in
coordinate system of target chamber or any other target
component. |
 |
Supports use of object-dependent material
properties for: |
| |
 |
Reflection of radiation (albedos). |
 |
Reflection of laser light (glint). |
 |
X-ray conversion efficiencies. |
|
 |
Provides 3-D interactive graphics for: |
| |
 |
Target grid setup. |
 |
Laser beams and/or target component
power sources. |
 |
Temperature and radiation flux distributions. |
|
 |
Includes power source modeling for: |
| |
 |
Laser beam systems. |
 |
Self emission from target components. |
|
 |
Provides for easy viewing of laser beams
intersections with target components. |
 |
Includes accurate algorithms for computing
configuration factor integrals. |
 |
View factors include effects of occultation
(i.e., blocking of light by intervening surface
elements). |
 |
Provides easy-to-use set up of laser beams:
|
| |
 |
Pointing and focusing specified in
coordinate system of target chamber or any target
component. |
 |
Beam clustering allows convenient
setup of beam parameters by group. |
|
 |
Shows results for individual surface elements
chosen by easy mouse clicks, including temperatures, fluxes
and incident spectrum. |
 |
Interfaces with other Prism software tools: |
| |
 |
HELIOS, providing time- and frequency-dependent
incident radiation flux data. |
 |
PrismPLOT: a graphics tool for generating
line plots, color contour plots, and 3-D surface
plots. |
 |
SPECT3D, providing time- and frequency-dependent
incident radiation flux data. |
