ElDynamicNorm Class Reference

Normalization used for electrodynamic simulations. Please note: This class can not be used together with dust particles, because no update has been done. E-Dynamic consideration was not yet planed. This class had to be completely reworked before using. More...

Inheritance diagram for ElDynamicNorm:

List of all members.

Public Member Functions
virtual void	SetSpecies (Species *)
	Some normalizations depend on the Species.
virtual void	Init ()
	Un-normalize the argument according to the electrodynamic normalizations.
virtual bool	Execute ()
	Executes the Task. This is the place where the algorithm for executing a Task it placed. The return value specifies, if the task is finished and can be removed. The basic Execute method executes all its sub-Tasks. The derived classes should call this member function, whenever there are subtasks to be executed.
virtual void	length (double &)
virtual void	time (double &)
virtual void	frequency (double &)
virtual void	mass (double &)
virtual void	charge (double &)
virtual void	potential (double &)
virtual void	density (double &)
virtual void	temperature (double &)
virtual double	GetTe () const
virtual double	GetTi () const
virtual double	Getdebye () const
virtual double	Getdebye_i () const
virtual double	Getdebye_d () const
virtual double	GetLaRadius () const
virtual double	GetBfield () const
Public Member Functions inherited from Normalization
virtual std::string	GetClassName () const
	Returns the name of the class, here "Normalization".
Public Member Functions inherited from Task
	Task ()
	Default constructor sets the running number nNr of the Task.
virtual	~Task ()
	When destructing a Task is has to be detatched from the parents Task list.
int	GetStep () const
	Return the interval between execution in timesteps.
int	GetEnd () const
	Return the timestep when the Task ends execution.
bool	DoNow ()
	Returns true if the Task is to be executed now.
std::string	GetName () const
	Returns the name given to the Task object.
virtual bool	IsInteractive () const
	If not specified otherwise, a Task is not interactive.
void	AttachTask (Task *pTask)
	Insert Task into Task list and registers it with the Process.
void	DetachTask (Task *pTask)
	DetachTask from Task list.
virtual std::string	Rebuild (std::istream &in)
	Rebuilds the task from the setup. This normally does not need to be overwritten. Rebuild always returns the next token that does not belong to the object setup.
virtual void	DumpTaskList (std::ostream &o, int nDepth=0)
	Recursively dumps the complete Task list into a stream.

Protected Member Functions
virtual PARAMETERMAP *	MakeParamMap (PARAMETERMAP *pm=NULL)
	Register the parameters needed for the Task. A derived class should overwrite this whenever it needs additional parameters from the setup file. It should then ALWAYS call the MakeParamMap of its superclass.

Protected Attributes
double	debye
	: Debyelength
double	debye_i
double	debye_d
double	courantfactor
	: Courant factor
double	n
	The non normalized density.
double	qoverm
double	massfactor
Mass double	Mass
The temperature of the electrons in eV double	Te
double	Ti
double	Bz
double	omega_l
double	rg

Detailed Description

Normalization used for electrodynamic simulations. Please note: This class can not be used together with dust particles, because no update has been done. E-Dynamic consideration was not yet planed. This class had to be completely reworked before using.

Quantities:

• : Courant factor
• : Mass factor
• Mass =
• : plasma frequency The quantities , Mass and are calculated individually for each species
