Notes. All the codes use a solar calibrated convection efficiency. The columns provide the adopted: equation of state (EOS), radiative opacity (the heavy elements mixture is also specified), boundary condition characteristics, superadiabatic convection treatment, bolometric corrections (BC) and model chemical composition (the fractional abundance in mass of helium and metals, Y, Z).
