Dear Fluka team,
I am trying to perform a simulation with 2000 USRBIN cards. However, I have read it is limited to 400. Hence my calculation ends with an error RC = 2. It seems it is possible to increase the number of USRBIN cards by modifying the parameter MXUSBN in the library and then recompiling FLUKA.
My questions are the following:
-Is it possible to modify this parameter from the FLUKA binary files or should I necessarily get the source code?
-How should I perform this modification? In which file should I modify the MXUSBN value?
Thank you for your help,
Best regards,
Thomas
Welcome @thomas.f
Is it possible to modify this parameter from the FLUKA binary files?
No
In which file should I modify the MXUSBN value?
include/usrbin.inc , but then you have to recompile the whole FLUKA code.
Are you sure not to have any good alternative to the use of a so large number of cards?
Dear Francesco,
Thank you for your precious help. I will ask for the FLUKA source code in order to compile it with the modified MXUSBN value.
Unfortunately I cannot find alternative since I have to keep consistency with previous calculations (that required less than 400 detectors) and since I have a code that performs treatment of results in a specific format.
Best regards,
Thomas
