Energy release from merging of individual flux ropes showing the MHD simulation (green) and relaxation model (blue). The arbitrary time step depicts the number of flux ropes that have been absorbed into the reconnection process. The MHD time has been normalised to scale to the Taylor model. This is needed since the Taylor model does not provide a time factor.
