f4enix.input.materials.Element#

class f4enix.input.materials.Element(zaidList: list[Zaid])#

Bases: object

Generate an Element object starting from a list of zaids. It will collapse multiple instance of a zaid into a single one

Parameters:

zaidList (list) – list of zaids constituting the element.

Return type:

None.

Variables:

  • Z (str) – element str notation (AA) read from the zaids.

  • zaids (list[Zaid])

Methods

__init__(zaidList)

Generate an Element object starting from a list of zaids.

get_fraction()

Get the sum of the fraction of the zaids composing the element

update_zaidinfo(libmanager, mass_fraction)

Update zaids infos through a libmanager.
get_fraction() → float#

Get the sum of the fraction of the zaids composing the element

Returns:

fraction – element fraction.

Return type:

float

update_zaidinfo(libmanager: LibManager, mass_fraction: float) → None#

Update zaids infos through a libmanager. Info are the formula name and the abundance in the material.

Parameters:

  • libmanager (libmanager.LibManager) – libmanager handling the libraries operations.

  • mass_fraction (float) – mass fraction of the element in the submaterial.

Return type:

None.
