    142142Here we look at what post-shock temperature the simulation gives as a function of the effective resolution.  The effective resolution = (# cells) x 2^(# AMR levels)^.  Each run used a base grid of 100 cells, so the only thing that changed from run to run was the number of AMR levels.  For some reason, I could not get it to run with more than 7 levels, so the 25600 run is actually a base grid of 200 cells with 7 levels.  For Tps I will use the highest temperature that I get from the simulation.  The highest temperature always occurs early on in the simulation and then the post-shock temperature slowly decreases over time, but stays relatively constant at some lower temperature.

    159161My next idea was to revert back to just DM cooling instead of the new Z cooling.  Perhaps, the Z cooling routine is not implemented quite right, and there is some "double counting" for cooling strength or something like this.  So here is a data table where I used DM instead of Z.  The improvement column is the decrease in relative error from the comparable Z cooling run.

    172 The DM cooling gets closer to what I expect but the Tps is still a little low.  In both cases, Tps seems to be converging to some other value different from my expected value of 58.3123.  However, when I do a run with no cooling, I get post-shock temperatures reaching 58.3123, and some even higher...closer to 60.75 with just 100 cells and no AMR.  So I decided to take a closer look at the adiabatic case to see if I could figure out the discrepancy.  Again, here is the data for no cooling:

    186189You can see that these simulations actually give higher than expected post-shock temperatures.  If I used these values as the "correct" values then the post-shock temperatures from the cooling simulations are even further off.
