This page may be used to produce special hydrodynamic result files, to be used as input for a decoupled Advection-Dispersion simulation. The created special hydrodynamic result file stores the simulated water level and the average discharge per saved time step.
To save a result file for decoupling, tick the 'Save HD result file for decoupled simulation' check box at the top of the dialogue.
Overall, three settings can be made:
· Definition of folder path
· Definition of file names
· Definition of storing frequency of results
Details on folder path specification
The Use default result folder check box will determine whether you will use the default folder path or wish to define a folder path manually.
The default suggested folder path will appear only after the MIKE HYDRO file has been saved initially. Default folder path is then created as a sub-folder to the folder where the .mhydro file is located.
To make a user-defined file path it is required to deactivate the check box and then use the
button to browse for required folder. Press OK when the correct folder has been located and the result file will then be saved to this specific folder during simulation.
Details on file name specifications
The Use default names check box controls whether the default proposed file name or user-defined file name are used for the result file.
The default proposed file name is created from the user-specified Title text field in the Description page of the tree view, and the default file name can hence be adjusted by editing this Title.
To apply a user-defined file name, simply deactivate the check box and specify the requested file name.
The storing frequency controls how often a result file is created. This is typically of concern when a simulation includes a large number of time steps because saving too many time steps would lead to a big amount of data in the result file. The frequency should however remain high enough, so that the Advection-Dispersion simulation can later correctly take the dynamic of the flow into account.
