Manual Page for Command >> FLOW



Syntax
>> FLOW (phase_name/PHASE: iphase) (component_name/COMPONENT: icomponent) (HEAT) (CHANGE/DELTA)

Parent Command
> OBSERVATION

 

Subcommand
>>> CONNECTION

 

Description
This command selects as an observation type the total fluid flow rate, flow of a given phase, total component rate, rate of component in a given phase, or total heat flow rate. This observation type refers to a connection. The phase name phase_name or phase number iphase, or the component name component_name or component number icomponent, which depend on the EOS module being used, are listed in the iTOUGH2 header. They can be specified either on the command line or using the subcommands >>>> PHASE or >>>> COMPONENT. If no phase is specified, the total flow rate is selected. If keyword HEAT is present, heat flow is selected. Note that the sign of the calculated flow rate depends on the order of the two elements in a connection.

Example
> OBSERVATION
>> GAS FLOW rate
>>> CONNECTION: INJ_1 ELM_2
>>>> ANNOTATION : Gas flow
>>>> FACTOR : -16.666667 to convert from m^3/min to kg/s
>>>> DATA on FILE : inject.dat
>>>> RELATIVE error: 3.0 %
