- This page gives a short technical description of the SIGLO
series of discharge modeling software.
|
| |
|

- The SIGLO & BOLSIG
programs are written in FORTRAN, and the user-friendly interfaces have
been developed using INTERACTER, and WINTERACTER (for the windows versions), a commercial library of Fortran callable
graphical subroutines. The user can select from pop-up menus a set of conditions:
gas composition, pressure, gap length, applied voltage, frequency, geometry.
The gas composition may consist of a single component selected from a list
of 15 different gases for which data have been compiled in the library
file provided with the SIGLO codes
or the user may expand this list to include other gases and binary gas
mixtures. Gas parameter data in gas mixtures can be calculated using the
Boltzmann solver freeware BOLSIG.
- A more recent and improved version of BOLSIG, BOLSIG+,
written by G. Hagelaar is available on the GREPHE/LAPLACE
website at this address: BOLSIG+

- Absolutely no knowledge of numerical modeling or computer techniques
is required to use the SIGLO series.
The use of the software is very intuitive and does not need a long and
painful study of the manuals.
|
| |
- The programs are available for PC (Windows 95-98-2000-NT-XP). For
