In this post we describe the configurations used for the solar washing machine simulations. We consider

Matlab routines used to generate sections

The following matlab routines were used to generate videos illustrating the variation fo plasma field flow in the model

plotsecs_densslice_vecarrows_array.m used to generate Velocity slice with velocity quiver. (rhosecs_vquiv)
iplotsecs_array_v.m used to generate velocity slices at different layers for vertical component
iplotsecs_array_h.m used to generate velocity slices at different layers for radial component

plotsecs_densslice_vecarrows_array.m

This is git commit https://github.com/mikeg64/smaug_wash/commit/fe2f1f2079ef905b5e4d205fc9d31a12057039ac Colours show plasma velocity magnitude at 3rd layer of the model i.e. taken perpendicular to the x-axis, contours show the perturbed magnetic field magnitude quiver arrows indicate the plasma velocity.

iplotsecs_array_v.m

This is git commit https://github.com/mikeg64/smaug_wash/commit/fe2f1f2079ef905b5e4d205fc9d31a12057039ac

Plot the vertical component of the velocity magnitude at a number of different sections (layer 1 and 20 along the x-axis) and sections perpendicular to the y and z axis

iplotsecs_array_h.m

This is git commit https://github.com/mikeg64/smaug_wash/commit/fe2f1f2079ef905b5e4d205fc9d31a12057039ac Plot the radial component of the velocity magnitude at a number of different sections (layer 1 and 20 along the x-axis) and sections perpendicular to the y and z axis
