14.3.2 Momentum Operators

The details of the following operators used in solving the momentum equations are defined in file fdifm.h.

•  ADV_Ux_i,k,j = the flux form of the zonal (x) advection of momentum defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².

•  ADV_Uy_i,k,j = the flux form of the meridional (y) advection of momentum defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².

•  ADV_Uz_i,k,j = the flux form of the vertical (z) advection of momentum defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².

•  ADV_metric _i,k,j,n = the metric term for momentum advection defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².

•  DIFF_Ux_i,k,j = the flux form of the zonal (x) diffusion of momentum defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².

•  DIFF_Uy_i,k,j = the flux form of the meridional (y) diffusion of momentum defined on the grid point. Units are in cm/sec².
