The output from MIKE SHE is stored in a combination of files.
.sheres - this is an ASCII file that is a catalogue of all the output files associated with a simulation.
.frf - this is a binary output file containing all of the static information on the simulation, as well as all of the time series results that cannot be easily stored in a dfs format.
dfs files - The rest of the output is stored in a series of dfs0, dfs2 and dfs3 files.
The dfs file format is a binary time series format. Each file can contain multiple output items, but each of the items must be stored at the same time step interval. Thus, the output for each of the processes that has an independent storing time step is stored in separate output file (e.g. OL water depth is stored separately from SZ Recharge, even though each is a 2D output item).
Viewing Output Files
The primary means of viewing the dfs2 and dfs3 output is the Results Viewer. The gridded output files can be also viewed in the Grid Editor. The Grid Editor includes icons in the icon bar to step between layers and time steps, as well as to switch between output items.
Dfs0 output is viewed most easily in the Time Series Editor.
All three of these are MIKE Zero tools and are described in the MIKE Zero documentation. See the section on The Results Viewer (V1 p. 93) for more details on the Results Viewer.
