title: pylso-foam subtitle: Python module for Large Scale Orchestration of OpenFoam computations. author: Johan Hidding, Pablo Rodríguez Sanchez

This module lets you interact with OpenFOAM through Python. You may use it in cases where you need to run a lot of separate computations in OpenFOAM, possibly in parallel. In our view, this fixes a few gaps in the PyFoam module. Here's what pylso-foam can and PyFoam can't do:

• Run jobs in parallel: PyFoam has a lot of hidden state. In pylso-foam every job runs in its own case directory.
• Work with binary OpenFOAM files: by using the byteparsing package, we can interact with binary data. We don't involve any geometry here, we can just read the raw data and do some arithmetic on it.

You may pip install this module. If you're developing however, we use poetry to manage dependencies.
