In-Depth Information
set of input parameters provided by the user to perform the evolution: the mass (in
solar units) of the stellar structure, the mass fraction of the initial helium abun-
dance, the mass fraction of the heavy elements abundance, the ef
ciency of
ciency, the core convective over-
shooting during the H-burning phase, the diffusion index, and the evolutionary
stage index. It produces a set of parameter values varying in relation to time,
quantities varying in relation to the radius of the model, the chemical composition
of the core (vs. time), surface chemicals (vs. time), and energy flows (vs. time).
4. The Output postprocessing module consists of the following jobs:
superadiabatic convection, the mass loss ef
TAR produces a compressed archive of the main outputs.
GNUPLOT produces the output plots (e.g., the ones included in Fig.
18.3
).
Fig. 18.3 FRANEC processing: portlet interface, workflow and selected results. The FRANEC
workflow includes the following jobs: EOS provides the equation of state, OPACITY produces a
table of opacity from precalculated tables, FRANEC produces the models of stellar evolution
starting from the outputs of EOS and OPACITY, TAR produces a compressed archive of the main
outputs, GNUPLOT produces the output plots (e.g., the two shown to right in figure)
