CEA Codes forum

Hello,

I need to ask you a question, as I am not able to find the answer in the manual but I am sure it is there.

I want to create my own particle distribution to use it as input for simulations in TraceWin.
Which format should have the file?

Then, I think, I should import it from the main page using ``Import all beam parameters from file``, I mean below it there is the option to import this file and them with this button I can import the beam parameters
Or should I import it from multiparticle tab?


Thank you in advance for helping

Hi Francesco,

To do that, you have to use the free code "PlotWin" allowing to import particle from an ASCII file (see PlotWin manual for format detail)
Then, using particle ditribution chart of plotwin, use "Save" button and select "dst" as output file type.

Regards,

Didier

I see, I was sure it was in the manual becuase I did it once, I was just looking in the wrong manual.
Info I need are in the PlotWin Manual
Everything is clear now

Thanks a lo Didier!
