Parameters in .data files

• In physics.data the MinDensity has been changed for some of the slower runs. I have denoted above where I change the minimum density during the time of the simulation.
• Three of the simulations are hydro, so we simply turn off the MHD in physics.data.
• Three of the simulations have a Mach No. = 3. So we multiply the final_time = .02d0 of the Mach No. = 20 simulations by the ratio of the mach numbers, (20/3), to get a new final_time = 1.33d0 for these Mach No. = 3 simulations.

Here is the problem.data for these simulations:

&ProblemData
spacing=.2           ! Lattice constant
thickness=0.01        ! Radius of wire: 0.01, 0.03, 0.06
beta=10             ! magnetic beta: 0.1, 10
mach=20              ! mach number: 3, 20
screen_x=.25         ! location of screen in x
rho_wire=1000d0       ! peak density of screen
rho_wind=1d0     ! density of wind
rho_amb=.01          ! ambient density

In summary we have 11 2D simulations with 1 level of AMR with periodic boundary conditions. Thus we can visualize the simulations used the replicate operator in Visit. We expect the simulation box to be very long and thin given the GxBounds. There is a high level for the base grid resolution — given approximately half a million cells in the base grid. So these jobs, despite being 2D, are high resolution.

Visualizations (Table)

• Replicate vectors: X = {1, 0, 0}, Y = {0, 0.2, 0}, Z = {0, 0, 1}.
• Replications in X = Replications in Z = 1, Replications in Y = 13.
• Merged into one block when possible.
• Using Log scale, with minimum = 0.01, maximum = 1000.
• Color table used is hot_desaturated.

MHD

Beta	Ma	Last Frame Completed	Picture at Final Frame	GIF	Notes, Questions, Observations
0.1	20	200		​GIF	- Strong magnetic pressure (\beta = 0.1), wire radius, i.e. thickness = 0.01, Ma = 20 - "Clumps" seem to grow in density over the evolution of the simulation. Starting with a wire radius of 0.01, it clearly grows to a larger radius (~0.03 cm). This seems to start once the clump moves past x = 0.6 cm. - The clumps get pushed back incredibly far. Starting at x_{i} = 0.25 \text{cm}, ending at x_{f} = 2.75 \text{cm}. Perhaps this is due to the high magnetic pressure. - A low density (0.5 \text{dynes}/\text{cm}^2) region forms behind the clump at around x = 0.7 cm. - Unclear when the clump stops accreting.
