Dry Boundaries

It is possible to simulate Dry Boundary Layer cases with ASAMgpu:
Conditions are topped by inversion, symmetric and asymmetric perturbation.

Dry Boundary Layer Symmetric

This 2-D test case was used to check the model implementation for errors in symmetry.

  Domainsize:
  sx=1;    
  sy=600; 
  sz=500; 

  Resolution [m]:
  dx=2;
  dy=2;
  dz=2;
 
  Timestep [s]:
  dt=0.2;
  ns=96;   

Left panel: Potential temperature Deviation; Right Panel: Vertical Velocity (green: up; red: down)

Dry Boundary Layer Asymmetric

During this 2-D test case the initial symmetry was broken through a random noise.

  Domainsize:
  sx=1;    
  sy=600; 
  sz=500; 

  Resolution [m]:
  dx=2;
  dy=2;
  dz=2;
 
  Timestep [s]:
  dt=0.2;
  ns=96;
