  • "kapsel2_linux.tar.gz" (Linux on x86-64 machine)
  • "kapsel2_win.zip" (32-bit Windows Vista or XP) .

STEP 2: Test run †

• for Linux

   > tar zxvf kapsel2_linux.tar.gz
   > ./kapsel -Icolloid_1.udf -Ooutput.udf -Ddefine.udf -Rrestart.udf

• for Windows
  • unzip "kapsel2_win.zip"
  • open command prompt

   > kapsel -Icolloid_1.udf -Ooutput.udf -Ddefine.udf -Rrestart.udf

• If you see the output as shown below, KAPSEL has been successfully installed.

   #using colloid_1.udf as input
   #using output.udf as output
   #using define.udf as definition
   #using restart.udf as restart
   #
   # Electrolyte eq. selected.
   #
   ...

• If the program does not properly run or abnormally terminated, build KAPSEL from the source codes. (see this)

STEP 3: Download and install "Gourmet" †

• "Gourmet" is a graphic platform developed by OCTA project. The complete OCTA package is not necessary, but Gourmet is needed to use KAPSEL.

  • Japanese: GourmetOperation_jpn.pdf GourmetPrimer_jpn.pdf

STEP 4: Visualize the result †

• The above test run takes about an hour. Save &ref(): File not found: "output.udf" at page "InstallB"; if you cannot wait till it.

• Gnuplot on Gourmet
  • Save plot.py.
  • Start "Gourmet"
  • "File" -> "Open" -> Open "output.udf".
  • Move down to "Python" panel, and click "Load"
  • Open "plot.py", and click "Run"
  • Move up "View" box, and check "Table"
  • Move down-left and select "Graph Sheet[]".
  • Move down to "Plot" panel, and type "plot "plot.dat" using 2:6 title 'vx0' with lines" in the command box.
  • Click "Plot", and you will see the time evoluation of Vx.

• Animation on Gourmet
  • Save particleshow.py and show_field.py.
  • Start "Gourmet"
  • "File" -> "Open" -> Open "output.udf".
  • Move down to "Python" panel, and click "Load"
  • Open "particleshow.py" (particle only) or "show_field.py" (particle with flow field, very slow!!).
  • Click "Run"
  • A new window will open, and click the playback button ">" there.

• Animation on AVS/Express (optional)
  • One can enjoy much advanced data-visualization with AVS/Express. A sample visualization network avs_charge.v is attached.
