Package usage for specific MHD applications

2

Hi. Just wanted to kindly ask if this package suits my following application: "MHD phenomena occurring in industrial processes involving liquid metals." We perform simulations for liquid metals aiming to...

When we do SDC with `castro.drive_initial_convection=1`, every time we hit `castro.drive_initial_convection_reinit_period` we reset the fluid state, but keep the velocities. This means that in the next timestep, the energy generation...

The new-time (corrector) sources use Sborder to compute (1/2) source_old to subtract. But we already store source_old in a MultiFab that is in scope at the time we call do_new_sources(),...

We still compute the hybrid sources even if we disable hybrid hydro at runtime.

It looks like we can add more data to the zenodo release: https://developers.zenodo.org/#harvesting-with-multiple-filters including grants and related papers

We can probably use most of what AMReX setup: https://github.com/AMReX-Codes/amrex/pull/3059

Halted pendulum wdmerger ICs

We should try the halted pendulum relaxation technique described here for wdmerger initial conditions: https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.10746v1

Implement exact Riemann solver as hydro option

1

It would be interesting to have an option to run the exact Riemann solver in the main Castro code, so we could more easily compare both accuracy and performance for...

Right now we have HSE boundaries work from `ext_dir`, but there are new options we could use instead: https://github.com/AMReX-Codes/amrex/pull/2995
