\section{Results}\label{results}  We calculated a grid of non-rotating stellar evolution sequences for initial masses  between $5\mso$ and $100\mso$, at metallicities of $Z$=0.02, $Z$=0.008 and $Z$=0.004, roughly corresponding to  the Galaxy, the LMC and the SMC, respectively. Additionally, we computed several models at  lower metallicity. Since rapid rotation can change the properties of  sub-surface convection \cite{Maeder2008}, we calculated a few rotating models to evaluate the effects of rotation on our results.   These effects are discussed in Section~\ref{rotation}.  Figures~\ref{fig:20zsunsurf} and~\ref{fig:60zsunsurf} show the evolution   of the radial extent and location of the sub-surface convection zones in  20$\mso$ and 60$\mso$ models during the main sequence phase.
