Formulation of ENLIL: Solving the Equations<br />

• The temperature is calculated from an equation of state<br />

p = 2nkT<br />

where n is the number density.<br />

• Available in Cartesian or spherical coordinates.<br />

• Uses the Total-Variation-Diminishing Lax-Fredrich<br />

scheme.<br />

• No artificial diffusion.<br />

• Second order accurate.<br />

• Field-interpreted central-difference approach is used to<br />

solve for B so that ∇ ⋅B<br />

= 0<br />

• Uses adaptive mesh.
