Meeting Update 09/08/2014 - Eddie

Not too much to report since last Thursday. I've been really busy setting up the PHY 101 course. The organization for this course has been a complete mess, but all the confusion should clear up this week which will free up more time for me to get back to research.

Mach Stems

I have a few runs queued up on Stampede to test a moving clump through an ambient. Not sure why they haven't started yet. Perhaps there is something going on with Stampede that I'm unaware of. ehansen09042014

This Z cooling run took about 90 minutes on 256 processors on Stampede (80 cells per clump radius). A no-cooling run took about 50 minutes.

The other test runs will be testing parameters related to diffusion.

Intersecting Shocks

I am going to work on the theory behind shock interactions today. I need to use shock jump conditions to figure out parameters for a post shock region behind two intersecting oblique shocks.

New Outflow Object

I am also testing the new outflow object. The diverging wind option quit with an error that I am working on debugging. I can expand on this topic tomorrow.
