Using the KEPLER hydrodynamics code, 464 models of thermonuclear X-raybursters were performed across a range of accretion rates and compositions. Wepresent the library of simulated burst profiles from this sample, and examinevariations in the simulated lightcurve for different model conditions. We findthat the recurrence time varies as a power law against accretion rate, andmeasure its slope while mixed H/He burning is occurring for a range ofmetallicities, finding the power law gradient to vary from $\eta = 1.1$ to$1.24$. We also identify the accretion rates at which mixed H/He burning stopsand a transition occurs to different burning regimes. We also explore howvarying the accretion rate and metallicity affects burst morphology in both therise and tail.
