Overall

For the output of overall convergence information you can select the following three options

·         No output

·         Standard output

·         Standard output and point output

For the standard output the following items for each iteration step is written to a dfs0-file

·         The time step

·         The iteration number

·         The RMS-norm of the change in significant wave height between two iterations steps

·         The Max-norm of the change in significant wave height between two iter­ations steps

·         The RMS-norm of the residual (only method 1)

·         The time step (only method 2)

If "Standard output and point output" is selected the significant wave height in a number of user-specified points is also written to the dfs0.

You must specify the name of the output file and if you choose "Standard out­put and point output" you must also specify the location of the points. You must select the map projection (Long/Lat, UTM-32 etc.) in which you want to specify the horizontal location of the points.  The geographical coordinates are either taken from the dialog or from a file. The file format is an ascii file with four space separated items for each point on separate lines. The first two items must be floats (real numbers) for the x- and y-coordinate. The third item is unused (but must be specified). The last item (the remaining of the line) is the name specification for each point. The point values in the output file are determined by piecewise linear interpolation. Hence, the point values are the discrete values for the element in which the specified point is located.
