# RM2 CACTUS simulation case

This repository contains configuration files and scripts for modeling the
DOE/Sandia RM2 cross-flow turbine with [CACTUS](http://energy.sandia.gov/energy
/renewable-energy/wind-power/wind-resources/wind-software-downloads/cactus-
software-download/). Note that the simulation may require an unreleased,
non-backwards-compatible version of CACTUS.

## Getting started

Runs are automated and post-processed with Python. It is recommended users
download and install the
[Anaconda Python distribution](http://continuum.io/downloads) (3.5).


## Usage

Executing CACTUS is done with `run.py`. To see usage and options, execute

    python run.py -h

A similar script, `plot.py` is used for plotting the results.
