• Re: File format for batch option -steps

    Hi Eladd,

    I've tried it - without success. I've found out that my time steps file was wrong, so I prepared the time steps in FEFLOW and exported them into a file. The new file ist different - first column is the absolute time and the second column is the time step to reach the time of the first column. This definition works directly in FEFLOW without problems, but giving the file with the -steps parameter does not work.

    Nobody knows a solution for this problem?
  • Re: File format for batch option -steps

    I've tested this, but giving the following file with -steps option to FEFLOW does not work. FEFLOW starts, loads the FEM file and exits immediately.


    This is my batch file for starting FEFLOW:
    [code]feflow -steps timesteps.pow -log results\FEFLOW.LOG -noexit -ascii -work . MODEL.FEM[/code]


    The timesteps.pow contains this:
    [code]
    ! Time steps
    !
    0 60
    60 61
    121 61
    182 62
    244 61
    305 60
    END
    END
    [/code]

  • File format for batch option -steps

    Hello,

    I'd like to set the time steps on that FEFLOW writes into the DAC file in batch mode. This should be possible using the -steps <filename> option. What is the format of the file with the time steps? Using a text file with one time step per line does not work - FEFLOW ends unconditionally without any log message.

  • IfmBudgetComponents - area flux

    Hello,

    I'd like to save a spatial and temporal distributed budget (especially the area flux from recharge) during a simulation. Looking at the IFM help files I found out that there is a function IfmBudgetComponentsQueryFlowAtNode() which gives back the budget values for every time step if called in PostTimestep().  Up to now I thought that an area flux is related to an element (triangle) in FEFLOW, not with a node. But IfmBudgetComponentsQueryFlowAtNode() computes the flux for a node. What is the correct meaning of this flux?

    A second question: I use an IFM module to change the groundwater recharge (inflow on top) for the elements of the first slice of a 3D model over a time period by calling IfmSetMatFlowRechargeValue(). After simulation the budget analyzer does not reflect the change in recharge, the fluxes are constant for all time steps. Is there a problem in the budget analyzer or do I have to use an other function for setting the recharge?

    Thanks
