Anisotropic Thermal Diffusion

Working on implementing Anisotropic Thermal Diffusion

The 4 columns correspond to Isotropic diffusion, Anisotropic but with , parallel diffusion, and perpendicular diffusion. And the 3 rows correspond to Backward Euler, Crank Nicholson, and Forward Euler (explicit).

The magnetic field is uniform in the +x+y direction and In each case the effective diffusion constant is 1, , each box is 2 units across, and the total time = 1. Hydro is turned off and these are run using a single core in fixed grid.

The pseudocolor is showing Temperature and the initial circle has a temperature ½ that of the surrounding.
