Parameter Sweep Example

Overview

Example using VSPACE, MultiPlanet, and BigPlanet to explore how ThermInt parameters dTCore (initial core temperature) and d40KPowerCore (initial radiogenic power from potassium-40) predict the radius of Earth's inner core.

Date 1/26/2021
Author Caitlyn Wilhelm
Modules ThermInt, VSPACE, MultiPlanet, BigPlanet
Approx. runtime 160 Seconds

To run this example

python makeplot.py <pdf | png>

Expected output

ParameterSweep.png

Inner core radius of Earth after 4.5 Gyr as a function of the initial core temperature and the current power from potassium-40 decay. The black curve is the current value.
