Extending and Smoothing Two-dimension Equation of State Simulation Data
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab. (LLNL), Livermore, CA (United States)
The Multiphase Equation of State (MEOS) project works to produce high quality equation of state tables which are used in computationally intensive simulations of materials in different conditions. An equation of state table describes the state of matter under certain physical conditions such as pressure, volume, temperature, or internal energy. MEOS uses many different models and combinations thereof to produce accurate tables consisting of continuous smooth data, derivatives, and higher-order derivatives. Accurate and smooth data are important factors in producing precise simulations. This report focuses on improving the electron tables produced from Purgatorio and Thomas-Fermi data. Purgatorio data is extremely accurate but often jagged and discontinuous in the lower temperature and density region. Thomas-Fermi is a model that provides smooth data throughout. Together, this produces an EOS data table that is both accurate and smooth. This report describes the implementation of a new feature that allows users to define more detailed regions in the Purgatorio table to be replaced with Thomas-Fermi. As a result, MEOS can generate a table that is both more smooth and still accurate.
