Making Output PPFs With TAWNY

The TAWNY program's functionality has now been implemented in OMFIT. For instructions on how to generate PPF output within OMFIT please read the Creating Output PPFs section of the google doc. The information below describes the use of the older TAWNY program. It is deprecated.

Private user PPFs can be created from the output netCDF file of a TRANSP run using a program named TAWNY. It is not necessary to be a member of the TRANSP users group to do this. In order to run TAWNY first change to the following directory:

cd ~pshare/tawny

Then execute the script Tawny.csh with 2 arguments, the first being the run ID of the TRANSP run, i.e. 50621X01, and the second being the user ID to write the PPF under, in my case this is buchanj.

./Tawny.csh 50621X01 buchanj

If the run is successful two new DDAs will be created: TRA0, which contains 2D profiles converted to fixed spatial coordinates and TRT0 which contains 1D profiles. PPFOPN error 2 indicates that you cannot write PPFs with the requested UID. Only Transp group members can write to user ID tranppf.
