[FLASH-USERS] Backwards Euler for Diffusion

[Camille Samulski]

Hi Klaus,

In section 18.1.2 of the FLASH user manual the general implicit diffusion
solver is discussed, and the scheme depending on the theta value in the
equation given for the unsplit solver is implied in the chart.  I was
wondering if I could artificially set the theta value to 1.0 for a
Backwards Euler scheme?

Thanks!
