User Defined Output Variable Option

This option enables one of the variables output to the binary results file 'filename.zze' to be defined by the user. The variable can be viewed in a 'Long section' plot and can be tabulated within the TabularCSV output tool. An example of the structure of this section of the file is shown in the figure below.

Datafile Format - User Defined Output Variable Option

Where the variable keyword can have the following form

'Ci' = sediment concentration by mass for fraction i expressed in parts per million, e.g. 'C4' for fraction 4, (ppm)

'CUM' = cumulative sediment passing each node since the start of the simulation (tonnes)

'DAn' = bed material size in the active layer where n is % finer, e.g. 'DA35' for the D35 active bed material size (mm)

'DDn' = bed material size in the deposit layer where n is % finer, e.g. 'DD50' for the D50 size in the deposits (mm)

'DEP' = cumulative sediment deposition volume at each section (m3)

'DRED' = cumulative dredged volume at each section (m3)

'DPLY' = deposit layer mass (tonnes)

PAi = proportion of the active layer in fraction i, e.g. 'PA3' for fraction 3

PDi = proportion of deposit layer in fraction i, e.g. 'PD1' for fraction 1
