THOR

CI

Flexible Global Circulation Model to Explore Planetary Atmospheres

THOR is a GCM that solves the three-dimensional non-hydrostatic Euler equations on an icosahedral grid. THOR was designed to run on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs).

BUILD & RUN THOR (TL;DR instructions)

   $ sudo apt-get install git make gcc g++ cmake nvidia-cuda-toolkit nvidia-utils-390 libhdf5-dev libhdf5-100  libhdf5-serial-dev libhdf5-cpp-100
   $ git clone https://github.com/exoclime/THOR.git
   $ cd THOR
   $ cp Makefile.conf.template Makefile.conf

Find the SM value of your Nvidia GPU. Decide if you want to run without any physics module empty physics module, or the one with radiative transfer, the multi module. Then open Makefile.conf in a text editor and edit like so:

   MODULES_SRC := src/physics/managers/<module_type>/
   SM:=<SM value of your card> 

Set module_typeto empty (default) or multi.

Then head back to the command line and

   $ make -j8 release

Finally, run

   $ bin/esp ifile/<config file for your planet>
