Constructor & Destructor Documentation

§ CoreData()

aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::CoreData ( )

Default constructor. Initialize everything to invalid values, and set is_initialized to false. The values will be updated in the first call of update() in DynamicCore class.

Member Data Documentation

§ Qs

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Qs

Energy for specific heat, radioactive heating, gravitational contribution, adiabatic contribution, and latent heat. These variables are updated each time step.

Definition at line 54 of file dynamic_core.h.

§ Qr

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Qr

Definition at line 54 of file dynamic_core.h.

§ Qg

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Qg

Definition at line 54 of file dynamic_core.h.

§ Qk

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Qk

Definition at line 54 of file dynamic_core.h.

§ Ql

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Ql

Definition at line 54 of file dynamic_core.h.

§ Es

double aspect::BoundaryTemperature::internal::CoreData::Es

Entropy for specific heat, radioactive heating, gravitational contribution, adiabatic contribution, latent heat, and heat solution. These entropy terms are not used for solving the core evolution. However, the total excess entropy (dE = Es*dT/dt+Er+El*dR/dt+Eg*dR/dt+Eh*dR/dt-Ek) is useful to determine the core is active or not. For dE>0, the core is likely to be active and generating magnetic field. These variables are updated each time step as well.
