node-export v0.1 FEFLOW IFM plug-in Nodal data export in transient simulations Axayacatl Maqueda axa.maqueda@protonmail.ch September 29, 2017 1 Objective Export to TXT selected nodal data from transient simulations at selected times by the user. It is compiled for FEFLOW 7 64bit. Figure (1) shows an export example which contains: node number, coordinates, simulation time (days), hydraulic head, saturation, and outflow. Outflow is the boundary component of the budget made at the node. In a pumping well, the boundary component of the budget is equal to pumping rate. Figure 1: Text file export example 2 How it works The plug-in needs two TXT input files to work: 1. a node list where the data will be collected and later exported. Remember node number = node ID -1. 2. a time-step list at which data is exported Both files are lists. The plug-in reads them and stores them in vectors. At every PostTimeStep callback, the plug-in compares the simulation time with the next time-step in the list. If the simulation time is greater, a data export is made. 1 Finally at leave OnLeaveSimulator callback a final data export is made. But the final export lacks the last column with the outflow value since budget data is lost once the simulation ends. 3 3.1 How to use the plug-in Generate input files for the plug-in Figure (2(a)) is an example of the node list for export. Every line is 1 node, 16 nodes total. Figure (2(b)) is a list of simulation times for export. (b) (a) Figure 2: a) list of node numbers, b) list of export times in days 3.2 Add the plug-in to the simulation Follow FEFLOW online help: http://www.feflow.info/html/help/HTMLDocuments/reference/panels/plugins.htm 3.3 Edit plug-in properties Once the plug-in is attached to the simulation the plug-ins panel should look like figure (3.3) Figure 3: Plug-in in plug-ins panel 2 A right-click on it opens a menu, select properties and the window shown in figure () opens: Figure 4: Plug-in properties The values can be modified according to the locations of both input files. 1. value 1 is for the location of the file containing the list of nodes for export 2. value 2 is the location of the directory where export files will be saved. In the example there are 16 nodes, thus there are 16 exports files named 1 to 16 corresponding to the order of the nodes in the input file. 3. value 3 is the location of the file with the time-step list. Click OK and store the values. If the simulation is saved, values 1, 2 and 3 are saved also at the end of the FEM file and are recovered when the FEM file is used in following simulations. 3.4 Run the simulation The simulation can be run now and data will be exported at the times set in the time-step input file. While the simulation is running export files are generated in the selected path. The directory looks like figure (3.4). 3 Figure 5: Export directory 3.5 GitHub project file list 1. export_permeable_mc_porosityPlug-in1.dll - compiled solution. DLL ready to use in FEFLOW 7 2. export_permeable_mc_porosityPlug-in1.cpp - C++ source code for the plug-in 4
