    3434Here's the originating problem.data file for one of the runs (the only variable that changes is Rjet)
     
    129129The series of sims below is similar to the one that I sent yesterday with these exceptions: the opening angle of the Gaussian-tapered flow is 15 deg, not 45, and the structure of the ambient (environment) gas includes the torus in addition to the AGB wind.  In this case the outcomes of each of the Rjet sims is similar in shape but not in size.  Oddly, it is the Rjet=2 sim in which add behavior develops near the y axis.

    133133Comments on size:  The mass and momentum in the Rjet = 2 sim is 4x larger than that in the Rjet = 0.5 case, so the flow penetrates further as Rjet increases.  However, the odd knot that develops near the y axis -- combined with the fact that the flow barely encounters the torus on its lateral edge -- mean that the head of the flow spreads out laterally and accretes more ambient with time.  This slows it down.
