The following command can be used to assign porous media element zone numbers using .gen files created by GridBuilder.

Zone by gb gen file

[edit | edit source]
  1. fname Name of the GridBuilder .gen file.

All elements in the grid will be assigned zone numbers from the GridBuilder .gen file. Since these files are 2-dimensional, elements with the same x- and y- centroid coordinates will be assigned the same zone number, regardless of their z-coordinate.

If elements are found which are outside the region defined in the GridBuilder file, the zone number 0 (zero) will be assigned and a warning will be issued.

In the case of grok grids which have been flipped using the Y vertical instruction, the x- and z- centroid coordinates are used instead to determine the zone number.
