Picongpu: KHI Heating test off?

Created on 15 Aug 2018  路  7Comments  路  Source: ComputationalRadiationPhysics/picongpu

I run a heating test for KHI with electrons/positrons and saw confusing results:
used branch: https://github.com/ComputationalRadiationPhysics/picongpu/commit/c4ee99340720f4ccacc25f042799cba8661fbd99

it should be look like this:
28874812-bb5009ce-7793-11e7-833e-1a1e36771c35
copied from : https://github.com/ComputationalRadiationPhysics/picongpu/pull/2168#issuecomment-319665861

but is:
dev_heat

The error is by a factor 100 to large.

I will check now the 0.4.0-rc

@kossag14 This might affect you and could explain why the injection is lost in the bubble.

I discussed this with @ax3l and he pointed me to the bug fix in #2112. It could be that the results are correct and older plots was wrong due to the bug #2112.

@PrometheusPi is cross verifying if our AddTemperature manipulator is still properly set up.

I found the BUG the file for the field energies is names field_energy.dat and since we have particle filter the energy files for particles with the fault filtering (All) are called <SPECIESNAME>_energy_all.dat. The tool plotNumericalHeating is changed to check only files with fits the regex *_energy_all.dat therefore field energies are not taken into account.

The initial temperature setting is correct #2698.

solved with #2697
