HyPar  1.0
Finite-Difference Hyperbolic-Parabolic PDE Solver on Cartesian Grids
2D Linear Diffusion - Sine Wave

Location: hypar/Examples/2D/LinearDiffusion/SineWave (This directory contains all the input files needed to run this case. If there is a Run.m, run it in MATLAB to quickly set up, run, and visualize the example).

Governing equations: 2D Linear Diffusion Equation (linearadr.h)

Domain: \(0 \le x,y < 1\), "periodic" (_PERIODIC_) boundary conditions on all boundaries.

Initial solution: \(u\left(x,y,0\right) = u_0\left(x,y\right)= \sin\left(2\pi x\right)\sin\left(2\pi y\right)\)
Exact solution: \(u\left(x,y,t\right) = \exp\left[-\pi^2 \left(4\nu_x + 4\nu_y\right) t\right] u0\left(x,y\right)\).

Output:

Note that iproc is set to

  2 2

in solver.inp (i.e., 2 processors along x, and 2 processors along y). Thus, this example should be run with 4 MPI ranks (or change iproc).

After running the code, there should be 11 output files op_00000.dat, op_00001.dat, ... op_00010.dat; the first one is the solution at \(t=0\) and the final one is the solution at \(t=10\). Since HyPar::op_overwrite is set to no in solver.inp, separate files are written for solutions at each output time.

HyPar::op_file_format is set to tecplot2d in solver.inp, and thus, all the files are in a format that Tecplot (http://www.tecplot.com/) or other visualization software supporting the Tecplot format (e.g. VisIt - https://wci.llnl.gov/simulation/computer-codes/visit/) can read. In these files, the first two lines are the Tecplot headers, after which the data is written out as: the first two columns are grid indices, the next two columns are x and y coordinates, and the final column is the solution. HyPar::op_file_format can be set to text to get the solution files in plain text format (which can be read in and visualized in MATLAB for example).

The following animation was generated from the solution files:

Since the exact solution is available at the final time , the numerical errors are calculated and reported on screen (see below) as well as errors.dat:

80 80 2 2 5.0000000000000003E-02 6.2964224103140468E-02 6.2590490579189209E-02 6.1847450231008405E-02 6.1507500000000004E-01 6.1944299999999997E-01

The numbers are: number of grid points in each dimension (HyPar::dim_global), number of processors in each dimension (MPIVariables::iproc), time step size (HyPar::dt), L1, L2, and L-infinity errors (HyPar::error), solver wall time (seconds) (i.e., not accounting for initialization, and cleaning up), and total wall time.
