In eddy viscosity, use tdef_sq instead of sqrt(tdef_sq).
Default Smagorinsky in mpdata does the same, but isn't sqrt(tdef_sq) in agreement with the formulas? Double-check the formulas and the computation...

This makes eddy viscosity smaller, hence Deardorffs char length (dxdydz)^(1/3) can be used instead of dz (e.g. in Dycoms).

Double-checked and the master formulation is correct (also agrees with SGS boussinesq from libmpdata). One remaining issue may be that 2/3 of divergence of velocity is not substracted from the diagonal of the deformation tensor (there's an open issue about it).
