Internal gravity wave beams

A non-hydrostatic configuration to demonstrate internal wave beams.

The domain is two-dimensional, i.e. in the x-z plane and in the center a wave maker is placed. The variable fac can be increased in order to increase the spatial (and temporal) resolution. The temperature variable of the model is in this case a temperature perturbation, the effect of the background stratification on the perturbation temperature is implemented in the configuration routine set_forcing.
