1 # star-phor 2 3 **star-phor** is a radiative transfer solver for photoreactors. Built 4 upon the **star-phor-input** configuration file specification and the 5 **sphin** library, it structures physical and geometrical data to 6 facilitate path sampling and to estimate the solution of the radiative 7 transfer equation as the expectation of random variables using the Monte 8 Carlo method. 9 10 **star-phor** is capable of handling complex photoreactive 11 configurations, and its computation time is independent of the 12 geometrical complexity and scale ratios used to describe them. 13 14 ## Requirements 15 16 - POSIX make 17 - C compiler (c99) 18 - pkg-config 19 - [RSys](https://meso-star.com/git/rsys/log.html) 20 - star-phor-input 21 - [star-3d](https://meso-star.com/git/star-3d/log.html) 22 - [star-sf](https://meso-star.com/git/star-sf/log.html) 23 - [star-sp](https://meso-star.com/git/star-sp/log.html) 24 - [star-uniq](https://meso-star.com/git/star-uniq/log.html) 25 26 ## Installation 27 28 Edit config.mk as needed.
