Meeting Update 0729

  • Krumholz accretion + Patch refinement worked with a factor added to the initial mass equation. I have done a run on Kraken with 320*192*192 base resolution + 2 level patch (effective resolution is 512 zones per clump radius) (with a factor of 0.25 added to drho). The rotating runs should look interesting with the increased resolution.

The star also grows to greater mass, not sure if it is because of the initial mass (with 0.25 factor, the initial mass is now about 10 units instead of 0.01) or increased resolution. We can try a factor > 0.25 to test the difference.

  • Bluestreak has some compiling problem, and it seems I'm not on the new grant. Currently I can only use the old grant hours. Each of the high resolution runs takes about 2 days on 1080 cores on Kraken, therefore we need about 50000 cpu hours for each run. 6 runs (as planned) will cost about 10% of the new allocation.

  • Currently working on merging 3.0 with thermal diffusion, will meet with LLE people this week.

Just added you to the new grant.
