3. DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM OR FUNCTION

THERMLIB is a code that gener-  ates, revises and expands the input data library to the lattice cell code THERMOS-OTA.

It can be used to:
-  create an entirely new library
- modify the data of library materials, remove materials, add    materials
-  list the library

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

NEA 0634/01: NEA-DB executed the test case on VAX-11/780. The following CPU times were found:
       THERMLIB: 2.48 seconds;   TERLIB: 2.56 seconds.

8. RELATED AND AUXILIARY PROGRAMS

The data library generated by THERMLIB is required by the code THERMOS-OTA. The new scattering kernels are taken from kernel files created by the codes KYKER, FLANGE-1, GGC4 or BASK.
TERLIB is a modified version of THERMLIB that treats the FACEL data  library. When running TERLIB a number of changes are required to the input card deck of THERMLIB.

11. MACHINE REQUIREMENTS

About 22 K words of core memory required. As well as normal card input and listing output files, one input file is required for the old library, one output file for the new library, plus a variable number of kernel files.

Main storage requirements on VAX-11/780 are:
             54Kbytes (THERMLIB);   79K bytes (TERLIB).
