[mesa-users] Solar example model with rotation help

Thanks for your response. I am trying to see how convective efficiency is affected by increasing rotation rate of a solar model, but I am hardly seeing any change in the superadiabatic gradient with increasing rotation. Am I turning on rotation too late in the model for it to be a big influence? Should I start it from the beginning of the model?

Thank you,

Lewis

Please check the test_suite case 1M_pre_ms_to_wd (star/test_suite/1M_pre_ms_to_wd). There you have this option

set_near_zams_surface_rotation_v_steps

Which will set the specified rotation at ZAMS.

Hello everyone,

I have been looking at how properties of the solar example models varies with mixing length parameter, but now I would like to include rotation in this particular model. I am a little confused at how rotation is switched on in MESA. What do you recommend I add to my inlist for rotation to start, let’s say, near the ZAMS?

Thank you,

Lewis
