About the I/O Superfile - the List of Input Files

A superfile that contains a list of input/output filenames needs to be present in the same directory as the compiled and linked executable, either hbgc123d (UNIX systems) or hbgc123d.exe (MS Windows). The filename of the superfile must be hbgc123d.in. The superfile contains the following five filenames, including the entire path, in the same order as given below:

  1. The filename of the input data file, prepared as outlined in this document.
  2. The filename of the ASCII output file, in plain text format, from the HBGC123D simulation.
  3. The filename of the binary file that contains the hydrological conditions (velocity and water content) generated by a subsurface flow code. The format of this binary file is the same as that specified for the Logical Unit 11. This file is used for input if KVI (defined in DATA SET 2) > 0. If KVI < 0, an arbitrary filename still needs to be present, but the file will not be used.
  4. The filename of the binary file that stores the output from the HBGC123D simulation. This file can be read by the postprocessor PostHBGC.
  5. The filename of the binary file that stores the required information for a subsequent HGBC123D restart job. This file is used for input if NSTR (defined in DATA SET 2) > 0. If NSTR = 0, an arbitrary filename still needs to be present, but the file will not be used.
