Research direction

Start by locating the existing single-zone burn, network, integrator, and plotting pieces in the repository. Automate a run of one network with every integrator and produce a plot of mass fraction evolution versus time so the integrators can be visually compared.

Description

hackathon integrator student project

It would be good to have a script that ran a single zone burn for a given network using all of the integrators and plotted the mass fraction evolution vs. time to allow for a visual comparison. We have most of the pieces in place for this, but it needs to be automated more.
