temperature_adjust

apply_diffusive_heating(delp, delz, cappa, heat_source, pt, delt_time_factor)

Adjust air temperature from heating due to vorticity damping. Heating is limited by deltmax times the length of a timestep, with the highest levels limited further.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
delp in

Pressure thickness of atmosphere layers

required
delz in

Vertical thickness of atmosphere layers

required
cappa in

R/Cp

required
heat_source in

heat source from vorticity damping implied by energy conservation

required
pt inout

Air potential temperature

required
delta_time_factor in

scaled time step

required
