Target Branch: main

Fixes #1142 | Workflow: d6b71842

Summary

Adds explicit latent-heat support for discrete (PMF) and continuous (PDF) binned particle distributions. The latent-heat step now mirrors isothermal shape handling, validates concentrations/volumes, and keeps latent-heat energy diagnostics consistent across all distribution types. Extensive binned fixtures and tests cover mass conservation, isothermal parity, energy bookkeeping, shapes, and error paths.

What Changed

New Components

  • None (all updates are within existing strategy and test modules).

Modified Components

  • particula/dynamics/condensation/condensation_strategies.py – Added shape-normalization helper reused by the latent-heat step, validated concentration/volume inputs, and aligned per-species mass transfer application and latent-heat energy tracking with the isothermal path for 1D/2D binned inputs.
  • particula/dynamics/condensation/tests/condensation_strategies_test.py – Added PMF/PDF binned fixtures (10/50/100 bins) plus mass-conservation, isothermal-parity, energy-tracking, shape, and error-handling tests for latent-heat condensation.
  • adw-docs/dev-plans/* – Updated epic/feature plan indexes for E5 latent-heat work.

Tests Added/Updated

  • Mass conservation for discrete bins (10/50/100) and continuous PDF.
  • Isothermal parity for discrete and continuous bins when latent heat is zero.
  • Energy tracking matches Σ(dm × L) for binned inputs and respects skip-partitioning.
  • Shape checks for rate/mass_transfer_rate and step outputs on binned inputs.
  • Error paths for non-finite latent heat and non-positive concentration/volume.

How It Works

The latent-heat step now enforces the same shape logic as the isothermal path and validates inputs before applying updates:

rate() / mass_transfer_rate()
        │
        ▼
get_mass_transfer(time_step, gas_mass, particle_mass, norm_conc)
        │
        ▼
_normalize_mass_transfer_shape(match species count)
        │
        ├──▶ _update_latent_heat_energy(dm, T)
        ▼
apply_mass_transfer_to_particles(norm_conc)
        │
        └──▶ apply_mass_transfer_to_gas (when enabled)

Implementation Notes

  • Shape normalization is identical to CondensationIsothermal.step(), trimming or broadcasting columns and reshaping 1D transfers for binned species counts.
  • _calculate_norm_conc now guards volume/concentration finiteness to keep -Werror runs clean.
  • Binned fixtures use PresetParticleRadiusBuilder with pmf/pdf distributions, multi-species densities, and concentration-weighted totals to verify conservation and parity.
  • Latent-heat energy diagnostics are computed after shape normalization so totals align with the applied mass transfer.

Testing

  • pytest particula/dynamics/condensation/tests/condensation_strategies_test.py -v -k "LatentHeat"
  • (Previously run in workflow; not re-run in this step)

Normalize first-order mass transport inputs for binned pressure
arrays and add discrete/PDF latent heat tests for mass
conservation, isothermal parity, energy tracking, and shapes.

ADW Code Review

PR: #1149 - feat: #1142 - [E5-F3-P4] Add discrete and continuous distribution support with tests
Review Date: Wednesday, March 4, 2026 at 20:16 MST
Reviewers: Code Quality, Correctness, Performance (C++/Python), Security


Summary

Severity Count
Critical 1
Warning 5
Suggestion 4

Critical Issues (Must Fix)

1. Per-particle Python loop in staggered Gauss–Seidel path; vectorize/batch. performance

  • File: unknown:unknown
  • Problem: Current implementation uses a per-particle Python loop in the staggered Gauss–Seidel path, which is a scalability bottleneck.
  • Fix:
# Example: batch vectorize with NumPy/array operations
# (Implement appropriate batching for the solver state updates)

Warnings (Should Fix)

  • Docstring for mass_transfer_rate out of sync with non-finite handling.
  • _get_vapor_pressure_surface can raise on non-finite Kelvin term despite sanitizing pressure_delta.
  • _calculate_norm_conc raises on any negative concentration; consider numerical tolerance or clamp.
  • time_step lacks validation for non-finite/negative values.
  • CondensationLatentHeat.step signature diverges from base class; align or update interface.

Suggestions (Overview)

  • Hoist per-step invariant computations.
  • Avoid per-particle np.atleast_2d allocations.
  • Deduplicate shape normalization logic.
  • Add tests for negative mass clamping and non-finite volume validation.

Positive Observations

  • Good coverage of discrete/continuous distribution support with tests.
  • Clear separation of strategy-based condensation paths.

CRITICAL: Per-particle loop in staggered Gauss–Seidel path

The current per-particle Python loop will not scale for large particle counts and will dominate runtime.

Suggested fix:

# Vectorize/batch updates across particles
# e.g., compute per-particle terms as arrays and update in bulk

This reduces Python overhead and improves throughput on large simulations.

WARNING: Non-finite Kelvin term can raise in _get_vapor_pressure_surface

pressure_delta is sanitized, but the Kelvin term can still become non-finite and raise unexpectedly.

Suggested fix:

if not np.isfinite(kelvin_term):
    # handle/clamp or raise with a clearer message

This keeps error handling consistent with the other non-finite guards.

WARNING: _calculate_norm_conc raises on any negative concentration

Numerical noise can produce small negatives; raising unconditionally can be overly strict.

Suggested fix:

if np.any(conc < -tol):
    raise ValueError(...)
conc = np.maximum(conc, 0.0)

This preserves strictness while tolerating floating-point noise.

WARNING: time_step lacks validation for non-finite/negative values

time_step should reject NaN/inf and negative inputs before use.

Suggested fix:

@validate_inputs({"time_step": "positive"})
# or explicit checks

This prevents silent propagation of invalid time steps.

WARNING: CondensationLatentHeat.step signature diverges from base class

The override signature differs from the base step, which can break substitutability.

Suggested fix:

# Align signature with base class or update interface + usages

This keeps polymorphism safe and avoids unexpected runtime errors.

test_step_rejects_nonpositive_concentration (and its docstring) says “nonpositive”, but the production check it exercises rejects only negative concentrations (concentration < 0). Since zero concentration bins are valid/expected for binned distributions, consider renaming this test (and/or updating the docstring) to “negative” to avoid implying zeros should raise.

The first_order_mass_transport reshaping/broadcasting logic added here is duplicated verbatim in both CondensationIsothermal.mass_transfer_rate and CondensationLatentHeat.mass_transfer_rate. To avoid future divergence, consider extracting this into a small shared helper (e.g., a private function on the base class) and unit-test it once.

Changes Made

  • Renamed the nonpositive-concentration test to clarify negative-only rejection.
  • Tightened parity testing for continuous isothermal cases to tolerate tiny floating-point differences.
  • Added shared shape normalization for first_order_mass_transport to avoid duplication across isothermal/latent-heat strategies.
  • Implemented additional validation and behavior adjustments per review notes (tolerance/clamping, non-finite handling, signature alignment, vectorized path improvements), with supporting tests.

Review Comments Addressed

  • Copilot: Clarified test naming to avoid implying zero bins are invalid.
  • Copilot: Extracted shared shape normalization helper for first_order_mass_transport with tests.
  • Gorkowski: Updated parity test expectations/tolerance for tiny mismatches.
  • Gorkowski (conversation): Addressed performance/validation concerns (vectorization, non-finite handling, tolerance/clamping, time_step validation, signature alignment) with added tests where applicable. (Comment IDs not recorded in workflow state.)
