HPC Adaptive Timestepping: Difference between revisions

=HPC 1D Timesteping=

HPC links with the 1D solver, ESTRY. When run with HPC (instead of Classic) ESTRY has been reconfigured to automatically act as an adaptive/varying timestep solution, and can step at different multiples of steps to the HPC 2D solver. Both 1D and 2D solutions are always synchronising at the 2D target timestep, or a multiple of the 2D target timestep if the 1D timestep is sufficiently greater for the 2D to perform more than one step. If the 1D limiting timestep is less than half the 2D target timestep, the 1D proceeds in two or more steps eventually synchronising with the 2D timestep. Where there is not a one to one synchronisation of the 1D and 2D timesteps, a usually negligible mass error may occur and can be checked by reviewing the CME% values shown on the Console Window, the .tlf file or the _MB.csv file in the same manner as Classic.
