PURE FUNCTION get_gamma (nvec)

Defined in

Inputs

  • nvec - number densities of tracked species

Description

  • Calculates gamma depending on if diatomic H2 is or is not present

Specifics

  • CALLs nparticle to determine total number density of particles
  • If nH2 is very small (< 1.d-6), say it's negligible, and gamma = gammaH (monatomic, 5/3)
  • Otherwise, factor in gamma for H2 (diatomic gammaH2 = 7/5)
