[MITgcm-support] How to keep Prandtl number as one when 3D vertical eddy diffusivity is empolyed?

Dear all,
I am trying to simulate diffusion-driven flow on sloping topography and set
a 3D vertical eddy diffusivity field as the background field. But refer to
the condtion that the Prandtl number is equal to one, I have no idea how to
set the 3D vertical eddy viscosity (viscAr). Could I input a
'viscArFile=viscAr.bin' just like 'diffKrFile=diffKr.bin'?
Please give me some suggestions.

Sincerely,
Jerry Ye
