Can you try to specify in the Main
block:
grid_length = ...
cell_length = ...
or
number_of_cells = ...
cell_length = ...
?
I am not sure that specifying a combination of number_of_cells
and grid_length
is working properly, in case this can be fixed.
Yes, I changed it to
dx = 59.71um /1408 dr = 22.54um /532
Main( geometry = "AMcylindrical", interpolation_order = 2, number_of_AM = 1,
grid_length = [59.71*um, 22.54*um],
cell_length = [dx, dr],
simulation_time = 1000,
timestep_over_CFL = 0.8,
#timestep = dt,
number_of_patches = patches,
EM_boundary_conditions = [["silver-muller"],["PML"],],
number_of_pml_cells = [[0,0],[20,20]],
solve_poisson = False,
print_every = 11,
use_BTIS3_interpolation = use_BTIS3_interpolation,
reference_angular_frequency_SI = omega0,
)
It does not crash anymore, but gives several warnings: WARNING src/Params/Params.cpp:629 (Params) CFL problem: timestep=0.266455 should be smaller than 0.235406 [...] WARNING src/Params/Params.cpp:1139 (compute) simulation_time has been redefined from 1000.000000 to 999.740105 to match timestep.
It also says that timestep = 0.266455 = 1.131895 x CFL albeit defining it differently. Thats why I am confused that it does have problems with the given CFL number.
But by doing this, does the simulation work with stable fields? I mean your not reduced simulation.
When setting the CFL condition to 0.5 it works, yes. But at 0.8 it crashes.
Edit: I get the same warnings.
Description
Hello,
when using timestep_over_CFL I get following error:
" On rank 0 [Python] Exception: simulation_time and number_of_timesteps are not defined"
When using timesteps, it works without problems. I added a shortened namelist where the error occured (it is a txt file so that I can send it here).
Thanks!
