= HPC TUFLOW Log File (*hpc.tlf) =
The.hpc.tlf log file records repeated timesteps if there is a significant change in timestep. It is inevitable to have repeated timesteps, if a model has a sudden change in rainfall input from one timestep to the next, or has a warmup period with small flow rate before a large inflow. However, if there is a high occurrence of repeating timesteps when the boundary inflows are smooth, this could be an indicator of model instability. The total number of repeated timesteps is also recorded in Simulation Summary of the .tlf file.<br>
'''Note:''' TUFLOW HPC allows the control numbers to be breached by 20%. The timestep will not be repeated with NC smaller than 1.2.
