Viscous (unbroken lines) and ohmic (dashed lines) heating during the simulations. In a) we see, similar to the energy plots, the braided quantities increase at a quicker rate than the twisted quantities. In both cases the viscous dissipation is larger than the ohmic heating by roughly a factor of 5. b) Shows the same quantities with the braided quantities scaled by the ratio of the initial twisted to braided energy (1.65), at the point where the simulations end the viscous dissipation is roughly the same.
