19 | | The main run requires the mean profiles from the precursor run to be used at the inflow. For this, the horizontally and temporally averaged mean profiles as provided with the standard PALM output are used. The user has to set parameters [../../d3par#dt_dopr dt_dopr], [../../d3par#averaging_interval averaging_interval], etc. for the precursor run appropriately, so that an output is done '''at the end''' of the precursor run. The profile information is then contained in the restart (binary) file created at the end of the precursor run and can be used by the main run. '''It is very important that the mean profiles at the end of the precursor run are in a stationary or quasi-stationary state''', because otherwise it may not be justified to use them as constant profiles at the inflow. '''Also, turbulence at the end of the precursor run should be fully developed.''' Otherwise, the main run would need an additional spinup-time at the beginning to get the turbulence to its final stage. |
