Hi everyone, I started testing the Thornburg04nc coordinates (spherical patches without Cartesian box) from Llama with (a modified version) of GRHydro. I started with just an atmosphere around a Kerr-Schild metric evolving only hydro. I'm seeing instabilities near the origin, so I was wondering if someone already encountered this issue. In particular, I wanted to know if someone has a good idea of how to treat the inner boundary. Right now, I'm putting the inner boundary inside the horizon, above the ring singularity, and applying hydro excision. I've tried a combination of things playing with those parameters but without success. Has anyone tried a similar thing evolving hydro? Just want to double check if there's something obvious in the grid setup I'm missing.
Below I attach the relevant part of the par file I'm using. Main difference with the public version of GRHydro is that I'm using Siegel+2017 c2p which works just fine with the same setup in Cartesian coordinates. Thanks a lot!! ###### ActiveThorns = "Time MoL" ActiveThorns = "Coordbase CartGrid3d Boundary StaticConformal" ActiveThorns = "SymBase ADMBase TmunuBase HydroBase InitBase ADMCoupling ADMMacros" ActiveThorns = "IOUtil Formaline" ActiveThorns = "SpaceMask CoordGauge Constants LocalReduce aeilocalinterp LoopControl" ActiveThorns = "Carpet CarpetLib CarpetReduce CarpetRegrid2 " ActiveThorns = "Coordinates GenericFD Interpolate2 CarpetInterp2 CarpetInterp" ActiveThorns = "CarpetIOASCII CarpetIOScalar CarpetIOHDF5 CarpetIOBasic" ################################################################################ #
