fluidsim.base.preprocess.pseudo_spect

Preprocessing for pseudo-spectral solvers (fluidsim.base.preprocess.pseudo_spect)

Provides:

class fluidsim.base.preprocess.pseudo_spect.PreprocessPseudoSpectral(sim)[source]

Bases: PreprocessBase

normalize_init_fields()[source]

A non-dimensionalization procedure for the initialized fields.

Parameters:
init_field_scalestring (use ‘energy’, ‘unity’)

Set quantity to normalize initialized fields with.

set_viscosity()[source]

Based on

  • the initial total enstrophy, Omega_0, or

  • the initial energy

  • the forcing rate, epsilon

the viscosity scale or Reynolds number is set.

Parameters:
params.preprocess.viscosity_typestring

Type/Order of viscosity desired

params.preprocess.viscosity_scalestring

Mean quantity to be scaled against

params.preprocess.viscosity_constfloat

Calibration constant to set dissipative wave number

Notes

Algorithm: Sets viscosity variable nu and reinitializes f_d array for timestepping

set_forcing_rate()[source]

Based on C, a non-dimensional ratio of forcing rate to one of the following forcing scales

  • the initial total energy, math:: E_0

  • the initial total enstrophy, math:: Omega_0

the forcing rate is set.

Parameters:
params.preprocess.forcing_constfloat

Non-dimensional ratio of forcing_scale to forcing_rate

params.preprocess.forcing_scalestring

Mean quantity to be scaled against

Functions

calcul_viscosity(viscosity_const, ...)

Calculates viscosity based on scaling formulae.
