The lessons are of course many. This talk will emphasize numerical and modeling techniques, both successful and failed ones, and the reasons for the choices made. Topics include: equations solved, space and time discretization, boundary conditions, conservation, radiation, subgrid turbulence modeling, shock capturing, MHD methodology, scaling and other speed issues, and results both technical and graphical. Enhancements in-progress will also be mentioned.
