Directory: ${PENCIL_HOME}/samples/1d-tests/telegraph_eqn_alpha2 SVN Id: $Id$ Maintainer: Axel Brandenburg Added: 7-Jan-2011 Status: succeeds # One of [succeeds|failing since |obsolete| ...] Recommended resolution: 32x1x1 for eta=0 is fine. References: The formalism is close to that used in: Brandenburg, A., Käpylä, P., & Mohammed, A.: 2004, ``Non-Fickian diffusion and tau-approximation from numerical turbulence,'' Phys. Fluids 16, 1020-1027, astro-ph/0306521 Comments: The equations solved are dA/dt=EMF, and dEMF/dt = (alpha*B-etat*J-EMF)/tau. The dispersion relation is (lam+eta*k2)*(1+lam*tau)=+/-alp*k-etat*k^2. Solutions for alp=1.2, etat=1, in a domain of length 2pi are: 1/tau lam 1.0 0.171 0.5 0.153 0.2 0.124 0.1 0.100
