965 | | These velocities are calculated from the resolved and subgrid-scale TKE using the Monte-Carlo random-walk method described by Weil et al. (2004, JAS, 61, 2877-2887). When using this method, the time step for the advancement of the particles is limited by the so-called Lagrangian time scale. This may be smaller than the current LES time step so that several particle (sub-) time steps have to be carried out within one LES time step. In order to limit the number of sub-time steps (and to limit the CPU-time), the minimum value for the particle time step is defined by the package parameter [#dt_min_part dt_min_part]. |
