A Python package to process Direct Numerical Simulations of reacting and non-reacting flows.

## Purpose of the project
The project seeks to make large DNS (Direct Numerical Simulation) datasets more accessible to a broad audience, including both specialists in Combustion and Fluid Dynamics and researchers from other disciplines.
Processing DNS data can be challenging in several ways. This package offers:
- **Field3D**: An object that automatically reads formatted data aligned with [Blastnet](https://blastnet.github.io) [1, 2], an open source scientific repository.
- **Scalar3D**: An object that efficiently manages pointers to local files, preventing memory overload.
- **Plotting utilities**: Generate visualizations with just one line of code, simplifying the validation process.

## Functionalities
This library simplifies the standard workflow commonly used for a priori validation with DNS data. 
A priori validation is typically applied to assess turbulence and combustion models. More recently, 
this approach has been extended to train and evaluate machine learning models, which are increasingly 
utilized in the fluid dynamics community to enhance the accuracy of source term modeling.

The following figure displays the typical set of operations that using aPriori can be performed with a few lines of
code:
