Ensight Data Preprocessing
Ensight requires an input file format which is different to the standard TUFLOW output types. RES_to_RES.exe is used to convert TUFLOW xmdf results into an Ensight compatible form. Directions how to do this are outlined here: RES_to_RES.exe
The utility will create the following three ensight file types:
- Ensight case file;
- Ensight geometry file;
- Ensight results files. A unique file is created for each result output variable and time step.
Ensight is a 3D computational fluid dynamics viewing software. An elevation dataset is required to lock the 2D TUFLOW results to a fixed horizontal plan (2D space). The TUFLOW model output result data type ZH is required for this purpose. This must first be specified as a TUFLOW command prior to running the simulation. Steps required to flatten the dataset are outlined in the flowing section, "Loading Data"
(eg. Map Output Data Types == h v q d ZH )
