turn off turbulent mixing

#1 Unread post by fanqing »

I want to make a run in which the turbulent mixing will be turned off. How to achieve that?

Thanks

I assume you mean vertical mixing of both tracers and momentum? There is no option to skip the vertical mixing code, but you can set the mixing coefficients to be quite small (perhaps zero?). You can turn off LMD_MIXING, GLS_MIXING, BVF_MIXING and MY25_MIXING. If you turn on ANA_VMIX, you can set Akt and Akv to be whatever you want in ana_vmix.h.
