精确能量守恒半隐式(ECsim)粒子网格法的实现进展

Advances in the Implementation of the Exactly Energy Conserving Semi-Implicit (ECsim) Particle in Cell Method

Giovanni Lapenta

摘要:

Lapenta在2017年提出的能量守恒半隐式方法(ECsim)是一种用于等离子体模拟的粒子细胞(PIC)算法。能量守恒是在不需要任何非线性求解器的半隐式公式内实现的。引入质量矩阵线性表示粒子场耦合。通过质量矩阵,该算法保持了能量守恒以保证机器精度。质量矩阵的构造是该方法的核心性质,也是计算周期的主要成本。我们在这里分析三种方法,修改质量矩阵的建设。首先,我们考虑粒子运动的子循环如何修改质量矩阵。其次,我们引入了一种形式的平滑,减少噪声,同时保持精确的能量守恒。最后,我们讨论了一个近似的质量矩阵,转换ECsim格式的隐式矩量法。

英文摘要:

The Energy Conserving semi-implicit method (ECsim), presented by Lapenta in 2017, is a Particle in Cell (PIC) algorithm for the simulation of plasmas. Energy conservation is achieved within a semi-implicit formulation that does not require any non-linear solver. A mass matrix is introduced to express linearly the particle-field coupling. With the mass matrix the algorithm preserves energy conservation to machine precision. The construction of the mass matrix is the central nature of the method and also the main cost of the computational cycle. We analyze here three methods that modify the construction of the mass matrix. First, we consider how the sub-cycling of the particle motion modifies the mass matrix. Second, we introduce a form of smoothing that reduces the noise while retaining exact energy conservation. Finally, we discuss an approximation of the mass matrix that transform the ECsim scheme to the implicit moment method.
