[FLASH-USERS] [EXT] how to modify hydro update ?

[Ernesto Zurbriggen]

Hi Antoine!

Taking into account this
>>The goal is to impose for a certain condition on the cell, that the
>>fluid cannot move during the hydro update at a given time step.
and this
>>I need to do during a hydro time step,
>>If the cell reaches a certain condition that depend on the hydro state
then
>>impose that the velocity is zero during computation of the fluxes during
this step (fluid is static)

and following Marissa's suggestion, I do not see why you may not do what
you want from the Simulation_adjustEvolution
routine. From there you can access all grid cells at any time step, and
force desired cells to have null speeds.
It may look like something like this:


  if (time > a .and. time < b) then

     do n=1,num_blocks
       blockId = blockList(n)

       call Grid_getBlkCenterCoords(blockId,blkCenterC)
       call Grid_getBlkPtr(blockId,S,CENTER)

       do k=blk(LOW,KAXIS),blk(HIGH,KAXIS)
         do j=blk(LOW,JAXIS),blk(HIGH,JAXIS)
           do i=blk(LOW,IAXIS),blk(HIGH,IAXIS)

             if (x > xa .and. x< xb)
               U(VELX_VAR,i,j,k) = 0.0
               U(VELY_VAR,i,j,k) = 0.0
               U(VELZ_VAR,i,j,k) = 0.0

               statement 1...
               statement 2...
             endif

           enddo
         enddo
       enddo

       call Grid_releaseBlkPtr(blockId,S)

     enddo

   endif

Would not it help something like this?


>>What I need is to look into the physics/hydro directory to modify the
computation of the fluxes.
This should be a much harder way. The path you should follow is

Flash.F90 --> Driver_evolveFlash.F90 --> Hydro.F90 --> hy_uhd_unsplit.F90
--> hy_uhd_getFaceFlux

Best!
