Parameters below are shown in the format:   Name   (Valid Values)   [Default Value]

  • OPT__BC_FLU_XM   (1=periodic, 2=outflow, 3=reflecting, 4=user, 5=diode)   [none]

    • Description: Fluid boundary conditions on the -x face. For the user-specified (i.e., inflow) boundary conditions, edit src/Fluid/Flu_BoundaryCondition_User.cpp for the cell-centered fluid variables and src/Model_Hydro/MHD_BoundaryCondition_User.cpp for the face-centered magnetic field, respectively, when TESTPROB_ID=0 or a problem-specific function when TESTPROB_ID≠0.
    • Restriction: When adopting periodic conditions, they must be applied to both the -x and +x faces. Particles only support the periodic boundary conditions. When adopting any non-periodic boundary condition for fluid, particles will be removed when getting too close to the boundaries (see PAR_REMOVE_CELL ).

  • OPT__BC_FLU_XP   (1=periodic, 2=outflow, 3=reflecting, 4=user, 5=diode)   [none]

    • Description: Fluid boundary conditions on the +x face. See the description of OPT__BC_FLU_XM.

    • Description: Fluid boundary conditions on the -y face. See the description of OPT__BC_FLU_XM.
    • Restriction: See the restriction on OPT__BC_FLU_XM.

  • OPT__BC_FLU_YP   (1=periodic, 2=outflow, 3=reflecting, 4=user, 5=diode)   [none]

    • Description: Fluid boundary conditions on the +y face. See the description of OPT__BC_FLU_XM.

    • Description: Ratio of specific heats (i.e., adiabatic index) in the ideal gas EoS.
    • Restriction: Only applicable when adopting the compilation option EOS=EOS_GAMMA. Does not support the isothermal EoS (i.e., GAMMA=1.0), for which one should adopt EOS=EOS_ISOTHERMAL.

  • MOLECULAR_WEIGHT   (>0.0)   [0.6]

    • Description: Mean molecular weight.
    • Restriction:

  • MU_NORM   (<0.0=m_H, 0.0=amu, >0.0=input manually in gram)   [-1.0]

    • Description: Slope limiter for data reconstruction. The coefficient of the generalized minmod limiter can be set by MINMOD_COEFF. 7=Athena mimics the extrema-preserving limiter implemented in Athena++.
    • Restriction: Only applicable when adopting the compilation option FLU_SCHEME=MHM/MHM_RP/CTU. 7=Athena must work with LR_SCHEME=PPM.

  • MINMOD_COEFF   (1.0 ≤ input ≤ 2.0)   [1.5]

    • Description: Coefficient of the generalized minmod limiter for data reconstruction (OPT__LR_LIMITER=2/4). Smaller values lead to more diffusive but also more stable solutions.
    • Restriction:

  • MINMOD_MAX_ITER   (0=off, ≥0=on)   [0]

    • Description: Maximum number of iterations to reduce MINMOD_COEFF when data reconstruction fails. It improves code stability but may break strict conservation.

    • Description: Correct unphysical results (e.g., negative density or pressure) by recalculating the solutions of failed cells with only first-order accuracy in space and time. OPT__1ST_FLUX_CORR=1: only use dimensionally unsplit update. OPT__1ST_FLUX_CORR=2: use dimensionally unsplit update first; and if it fails, switch to dimensionally split update. The number of cells corrected by this option will be recorded in the file Record__NCorrUnphy.
    • Restriction: Only applicable when adopting the compilation option FLU_SCHEME=MHM/MHM_RP/CTU. MHD currently does not support 3D+1D. Be aware that this option may cause conservation errors.

    • Restriction: Only applicable when enabling the compilation option DUAL_ENERGY.

  • OPT__SAME_INTERFACE_B   (0=off, 1=on)   [0]

    • Description: Ensure adjacent patches on the same level have exactly the same magnetic field on their shared interfaces (including round-off errors). This option is mainly for debugging purposes.

    • Description: Apply additional corrections when all levels are synchronized. See Fluid/Flu_CorrAfterAllSync.cpp for details. This functionality is mainly for achieving bitwise reproducibility. OPT__CORR_AFTER_ALL_SYNC=1: apply corrections after each root-level update. OPT__CORR_AFTER_ALL_SYNC=2: apply corrections before each data dump. The default depends on the compilation option GAMER_DEBUG.
    • Restriction: Must be turned on when enabling the compilation option BITWISE_REPRODUCIBILITY.

  • OPT__RESET_FLUID   (0=off, 1=on)   [0]

    • Description: Reset fluid variables after each update. It can be useful for adding sources or sinks to a simulation. To specify how to reset fluid variables, edit the source file src/Fluid/Flu_ResetByUser.cpp directly or add a specific routine to your test problem files. See Adding New Simulations for details.
    • Restriction:

  • OPT__RESET_FLUID_INIT   (<0 → set to OPT__RESET_FLUID, 0=off, 1=on)   [-1]

  • OPT__CHECK_PRES_AFTER_FLU   (<0 → set to default, 0=off, 1=on)   [-1]

    • Description: Check unphysical pressure at the end of the fluid solver. If it is off, the code will only check internal energy. This is particularly useful for a complicated equation of state.
