Two simple test cases for batch and continuous operation are found in the ./tests/ subfolder. In order to reproduce the results of the study, please see the ./atpf/utils/atpf_calib.py file, where the sensitivity analysis is performed and model parameters are optimized. The empirical correlations described in the methods section are found in the ./atpf/utils/atpf_models.py file.
