SAVE_interval

control saving frequency

SAVE_interval allows to control the frequency of saving result files. Its interpretation is either the number of time steps or the simulation time depending on SAVE_choose_meth. The output frequency can be refined in intervals of interest by providing multiple SAVE_first and SAVE_interval statements. These apply to each SAVE_format. Example 1: time step dependent write out

SAVE_choose_meth = 'CONT' SAVE_first(1) = 1 SAVE_interval(1) = 5 SAVE_first(2) = 1000 SAVE_interval(2) = 1 SAVE_first(3) = 1100 SAVE_interval(3) = 5

Here, starting from the first time step, after every 5 time cycles a result file is generated. After 1000 time cycles, a result is generated after every time step. Finally, after 1100 time cycles, the output again is generated after every 5 time steps. Example 2: simulation time dependent write out

SAVE_choose_meth = 'TIME' SAVE_first(1) = 0.5 SAVE_interval(1) = 0.1

This writes a result file each time a simulation time of \( 0.5 + 0.1n\) seconds \( (n \ge 0)\) has been reached (or surpassed).
