[FLASH-USERS] Magnetic Fields

[Jenks, Malia T.]

I am using the MHD staggered mesh solver, and Flash 4.4. I saw in the documentation that the magx, magy, magz are per volume. In Simulation_initBlock.F90 I set the magnetic fields I want given in units of Gauss per grid volume. I have UnitSystem set to "CGS". The saved magp from my plot output files is small, it seems to still have the per volume in it. This is also causing the total magnetic energy of my simulation to be small.

Should I be initializing magx, magy, and magz in terms of G/volume?

Do I need to remove the (/volume)^2 from the magp to have a value in terms of energy density?
