6 | | As its name implies, the {{{Wind}}} object contains information about the background for a simulation. Unlike the {{{UniformRegion}}} object, the {{{Ambient}}} object has no shape or physical extent. It essentially does what the {{{InitWindt}}} routine did using data from the {{{modules.data}}} file. This however, prevented users from being able to calculate and specify the initial ambient values at run time. The {{{Ambient}}} object allows for a simple interface for setting the background density, velocity, pressure, and magnetization. The object (if used) must be created during the {{{ProglemModuleInit}}} subroutine. |
| 6 | As its name implies, the {{{Wind}}} object was originally created to simulate a stellar wind. However, the actual object is a little more generic. It can represent any continuous inflow condition that, by default, comes in from the left boundary of the domain. The {{{Wind}}} object allows for a simple interface for setting the inflow density, velocity, temperature, and magnetization. The object (if used) must be created during the {{{ProglemModuleInit}}} subroutine. |
