[RegCNET] RegCM 4 - HadGEM2 RCP4.5 data taking more run time

[Mujtaba]

Dear Dr.Rajalakshmi,

This depend upon the value of dt that you have set in timeparam stanza of
input namelist of the RegCM.

A good rule of thumb is to have a dt not greater than three times the ds
value in km specified in the geoparam stanza. A greater value may lower the
computational time, but in case of strong advection may lead to non-accurate
computation or even the violation of CFL condition and the divergence of the
solution.

 

Best Regards

Subject: [RegCNET] RegCM 4 - HadGEM2 RCP4.5 data taking more run time

 

Dear all,

 I am using RegCM4.4 rc22 for model run over India using HadGEM2 RCP 4.5
dataset. Run was tried for 60km and 25 km. Model is taking 1 hour to
complete one day for 25km run and 45 minutes for 60 km run. I have to run
the model from 1971-2100. Can anyone suggest the reason why the model is
taking so much time for a day. Is there a way to reduce the time taken by
the model?

Kindly give suggestions regarding the issue.

Thanks and regards
