This repository contains the code used to generate the following datasets from "the Well" [1]:

• Rayleigh-Bénard convection
• shear flow

It relies heavily on the dedalus package https://dedalus-project.org/ [2].

Installation

From a venv with python>=3.11.2 run the commands below to install the required packages

python -m venv ~/venvs/thewell
source ~/venvs/thewell/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Generation

The generation is performed by running generate_rbc.py or generate_sf.py. The grid of parameters used (for the PDE and initial conditions) is present in global_constants.py.

RBC_GRID = {
    'resolution': [(512, 128)],
    'rayleigh': [1e6, 1e7, 1e8, 1e9, 1e10],
    'prandtl': [0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 10.0],
    'dT': [0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0],
    'seed': [40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49],
    'init': ["default"],
}

SF_GRID = {
    'resolution': [(128, 256)],
    'reynolds': [1e4, 5e4, 1e5, 5e5],
    'schmidt': [0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 10.0],
    'width': [0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0],
    'n_shear': [2, 4],
    'n_blobs': [2, 3, 4, 5],
    'init': ["default"],
}
