This module contains global variables relating to the constraint equations (f-values, limits, etc.).

Module containing global variables relating to the costing algorithms of a fusion power plant.

Module containing global variables relating to the current drive system

Module to define iteration variables

Error handling module for PROCESS author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre N/A This module provides a centralised method for dealing with errors generated by PROCESS.

All possible informational/error messages are initialised via a call to initialise_error_list. Thereafter, any routine that needs to flag a message should call report_error with the relevant error identifier as the argument. Up to eight integer and eight floating-point diagnostic values may be saved by the user in arrays idiags and fdiags, respectively, for debugging purposes.

The list of messages reported during the course of a run may be displayed by calling routine show_errors.

The error_status variable returns the highest severity level that has been encountered; if a severe error is flagged (level 3) the program is terminated immediately. None

JSON file reading module author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre N/A This module uses a local copy of the freely-available FSON library, written by Joseph A. Levin and distributed via github, to enable PROCESS to read in information from JSON-formatted files. None

Module containing function evaluators for HYBRD and VMCON solvers author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre N/A This module contains the function evaluators required by the two equation solvers in the code.

Module containing global variables relating to the first wall, blanket and shield components

This module contains global variables relating to the heat transport system of a fusion power plant, and also those for a hydrogen production plant.

Module containing global variables relating to the inertial fusion energy model

Library of mathematical and numerical routines author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre N/A This module contains a large number of routines to enable PROCESS to perform a variety of numerical procedures, including linear algebra, zero finding, integration and minimisation. The module is an amalgamation of the contents of several different pre-existing PROCESS source files, which themselves were derived from a number of different numerical libraries including BLAS and MINPAC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_function

Module containing neoclassical computations author: J Lion, IPP Greifswald Formulas used are described in: Beidler (2013), https://doi.org/10.1088/0029-5515/51/7/076001

Module containing global variables relating to the PF coil power conversion system

Module containing global variables relating to the poloidal field coil systems

Module containing global variables relating to the plasma physics

Module containing the routines that perform the actual reading and parsing of the input file author: P J Knight, CCFE, Culham Science Centre N/A This module provides a set of routines to read in data from the main PROCESS input file (IN.DAT). The format of the file is similar to the F90 NAMELIST structure, but with a few additional features:

1. Comments can be read in that are copied to the standard output channel - these are lines with five (or more) consecutive '*' characters at the start.

2. Other lines within the file can contain simple comments for the user - these are not copied to the standard output channel. They start with one to four '*' characters.
