[mesa-users] Viscous heating as a profile output

[Bill Paxton]

Hi,

The file star/defaults/profile_columns.list is sadly out of date.  There is in fact a profile item called 'eps_visc', so give that a try.   The truth about the current built-in options for profiles is in star/private/star_profile_def.f90, and similarly for history logs, it is in star/private/star_history_def.f90.  So you can search in those, or just do what you did and send a question to mesa-users.

Bill
