The scaling for A is fairly straighforward. The units for A are
1/viscosity, so you scale A inversely to what you scale viscosity.
What I do not know (and what I think Taichi is asking) is where did
the original numbers come from. What is the original paper that you
got the numbers from? Presumably people will want to use their own
numbers for their own runs, but it would be nice to know where the
example numbers come from.
Thanks,
