**note 1**: When compiling the code in parallel, you need to have enough RAM on your computer. As a rule, you need 1 GB free RAM per each processor in your computer for compiling in parallel.
You may want to use fewer number of cores on your computer by using the following command:
`$ make install -j 3`
the above command uses only 3 cores for compiling.
the above command only uses 3 cores for compiling.
**note 2**: By default PhasicFlow is compiled with **double** as floating point variable. You can compile it with **float**. Just in the command line of camke added `-DpFlow_Build_Double=Off` flag to compile it with float. For example if you are building for cuda, you can enter the following command:
`$ cmake ../ -DpFlow_Build_Cuda=On --DpFlow_Build_Double=Off`
`$ cmake ../ -DpFlow_Build_Cuda=On -DpFlow_Build_Double=Off`
### Step 6: Testing
In the current terminal or a new terminal enter the following command:
`$ ~checkPhasicFlow`
`$ checkPhasicFlow`
This command shows the host and device environments and software version. If PhasicFlow was build correctly, you would get the following output:

# How to use PhasicFlow {#howToUsePhasicFlow}
Here you will learn how to use PhasicFlow to setup a granular flow simulation. The inputs for simulation are supplied through some text-based files, called file dictionary, located in two folders: `settings` and `caseSetup`. These folders are located under the root case directory.
All the commands are performed through terminal in which the current working directory is root case directory (you see `settings` and `caseSetup` folders when `ls` command is entered). The states of geometry and particles are stored in time folders with names that represent the time. When simulation is finished, one case use post-processing tool pFlowToVTK to convert the stored results in the time folder into VTK file format. The VTK file format can be read by Paraview.
A set of tutorials with detailed descriptions are provided to show you how to use PhasicFlow for various granular flow problems. Here is a list of them.
