About Elmer Definitions File

Post by tacojoi »

Dear Sir,
(1) I want to edit GUI of Model->Setup, but I can not find the XML file of Simulation. Could you tell me where the file is? I want to add "Coordinate Scaling" to it.

(2) How to write statements in XML file and then can inlcude type of parameters in SIF file? For example, JCode = Integer 1, not JCode = 1.

(3) After I edited a XML file and generated a SIF file, discovered that its content arrangement is disorderly. Like this

Boundary Condition 1
Target Boundaries(1) = 1
Name = "BoundaryCondition 1"
StartPT = 0.001
Beta = 2.0
Procedure = "ElmerSB" "HHH"
Alpha = 0.0
Heat Flux = Variable Temperature
ICode = 1
End

This will affect the solution? Has any method to be possible the order of rank to become me to want? Like this

Boundary Condition 1
Target Boundaries(1) = 1
Name = "BoundaryCondition 1"
Heat Flux = Variable Temperature
Procedure = "ElmerSB" "HHH"
ICode = 1
StartPT = 0.001
Alpha = 0.0
Beta = 2.0
End

Best Regards,
Taco

Hi

1) This is hard coded so there is no xml-definition for that.

2) The XML definition does not know of the type. Hence to omit the type you should add the new keywords to (or create a local file) SOLVER.KEYWORDS.

3) I don't know the logic behind the ordering. Anway, it should have no effect unless the different BCs are conflicting. By the way, at least the standard version of Elmer does not look at the "Procedure" keyword in BC section.

Hi, Peter

Thanks a lot. That procrdure is function of Heat Flux, and it should be "Real Procedure". Other parameters are used in my function.

Taco.
