Help: EQFLUX

Damage ratios for conversion to damage equivalent fluences are available for Si [Tada and Carter, 1982], GaAs [Anspaugh, 1996] and multijunction [Marvin, 2000] cells.

Advanced users have the option to upload a file with RDC values. The input file should be in the same format as this sample input file, i.e.

the first block of the file should contain nine header lines (free format, blank lines are allowed), giving the cell name (string without blanks), the values of the proton-electron damage equivalence factors and the coverglass material (string without blanks) and density in g/cm³
the rest of the file should exist of four blocks of RDCs, in the order: electrons, protons for P_max, protons for V_oc, protons for I_sc;
each of these four blocks should contain five header lines (free format, blank lines are allowed);
the blocks should be separated by a blank line;
the data columns in the four input blocks should contain 'energy' in the first column, and the RDCs for coverglass thickness (in mils) 0, 1, 3, 6, 12, 20, 30, 60. The second columns is not used, but should be present. The column format should be compatible with a Fortran READ(,*) statement.
the energies in the first column should correspond exactly to the energies used by EQFLUX.

Once a file has been uploaded, it can be re-used without uploading it again.

To generate an input file, the user can use the RDC converter tool that is available inside miscellaneous. The tool converts unidirectional RDCs into omnidirectional ones.

When the input form has been completed, pressing the button will start the calculation and bring up the "Results" page.

The button calls up the model selection page for consecutive runs of multiple models. This feature is available for advanced users only.
