The DE4 package or Direct Solver is one of the solvers available for MODFLOW. It requires reading in a DE4 file. The MODFLOW DE4 Solver package dialog will show the variables in the DE4 file. Variables include:

  • Comments (Text) – Allows up to 199 characters.
  • Maximum number of iterations (ITMX)
  • Maximum number of upper equations (MXUP) – Impacts the amount of memory used by the package. Writes the actual number of equations in the upper part when the package runs.
  • Maximum number of lower equations (MXLOW) – Impacts the amount of memory used by the package. Writes the actual number of equations in the lower part when the package runs.
  • Maximum bandwidth (MXBW) – Impacts the amount of memory used by the package. Writes the actual band width plus 1 when the package runs.
  • Frequency of change of coefficients in A (IFREQ)
  • Print flag for convergence information per time step (MUTD4)
  • Head change multiplier (ACCL)
  • Head change closure criterion (HCLOSE)
  • Interval for time step printing (IPRD4)

For more information on this solver see page 84 of the USGS documentation at http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/usgspubs/ofr/.

DE4 File Format

FOR EACH SIMULATION
 0.  [#Text]
 1.  ITMX   MXUP   MXLOW   MXBW
 2.  IFREQ  MUTD4  ACCL    HCLOSE   IPRD4 

Item 0 is optional—“#” must be in column 1. Item 0 can be repeated multiple times.
