精确能量守恒的半隐式粒子胞腔形式

Exactly Energy Conserving Semi-Implicit Particle in Cell Formulation

Giovanni Lapenta

摘要:

提出了一种基于半隐式方法的新的粒子网格方法。新方法的新颖之处在于,与任何半隐式前辈不同,它同时保留了显式计算周期并精确地保存了能量。最近的研究提出了全隐式方法,其中能量守恒作为非线性迭代过程的一部分获得。新方法(称为能量守恒半隐式方法,ECSIM),而不是,不需要任何非线性迭代,其计算周期是类似的显式PIC。新方法的特点是:(1)对于任何时间步长或网格间距,它精确地保持能量以进行舍入;(2)它在时间上是无条件稳定的,使用户不必求解电子等离子体频率,并允许用户选择任何所需的时间步长; iii)消除了有限网格不稳定性的约束,允许用户选择任何期望的分辨率而不被强制解析德拜长度; iv)粒子移动器具有与显式PIC相同的计算复杂度,只有场求解器具有增加的计算成本。新的ECSIM在许多基准测试中进行了测试,其中测试了准确性和计算性能。

英文摘要:

We report a new particle in cell (PIC) method based on the semi-implicit approach. The novelty of the new method is that unlike any of its semi-implicit predecessors at the same time retains the explicit computational cycle and conserves energy exactly. Recent research has presented fully implicit methods where energy conservation is obtained as part of a non linear iteration procedure. The new method (referred to as Energy Conserving Semi-Implicit Method, ECSIM), instead, does not require any non-linear iteration and its computational cycle is similar to that of explicit PIC. The properties of the new method are: i) it conserves energy exactly to round-off for any time step or grid spacing; ii) it is unconditionally stable in time, freeing the user from the need to resolve the electron plasma frequency and allowing the user to select any desired time step; iii) it eliminates the constraint of the finite grid instability, allowing the user to select any desired resolution without being forced to resolve the Debye length; iv) the particle mover has a computational complexity identical to that of the explicit PIC, only the field solver has an increased computational cost. The new ECSIM is tested in a number of benchmarks where accuracy and computational performance are tested.
