When a T-PROGS simulation has been created, TSIM can be run to generate either material sets on a 3D grid or HUF data for MODFLOW. TSIM is run via the TPROGS|Run TSIM menu command. This brings up the TSIM Wizard.
Step 1
You can choose to run TSIM now from GMS or save the input files so you can run TSIM later. If you don't run TSIM from GMS, no material sets or HUF arrays will be created.
Step 2
Running TSIM from GMS
| Option |
Description
|
| Number of realizations |
The number of material sets or HUF sets that will be generated.
|
| Seed |
The random number seed used by TSIM. This is generated by GMS but can be changed by the user. Running TSIM with the same inputs and see will result in identical outputs.
|
| Max. # of quenching iterations |
A TSIM parameter. "No more than five quenching iterations are usually necessary – too many iterations may produce unrealistic artifacts."[1]
|
| Quenching tolerance |
A TSIM parameter. "The tolerance limit sets a criteria for terminating quenching based on the value of the objective function as normalized relative to its initial value."
|
| TSIM Output |
You can choose to generate material sets or, if a MODFLOW model exists which uses the HUF package, HUF arrays.
|
| Create material probability data sets |
This will cause datasets to get created, one per material, where the dataset values equal the probability that that material occurs in the given cell.
|
| Background Grid |
The dimensions and number of grid ranks of the background grid are determined from the 3D grid in the project. If generating HUF arrays you can specify the number of grid layers in the vertical (Z) direction.
|
| Target grid layers |
Starting at GMS version 8.0 you can target a subset of grid layers. The resulting material sets will have inactive values outside of the targeted area. You can specify the min and max layers or the named layer ranges you wish to target.
|
Saving files to run TSIM later
The option in Step 2 if saving the TSIM files for later use are similar to those for running TSIM in GMS. You must specify a file and where it is to be saved. Also, the dimensions and number of ranks of the background grid must be specified. Finally, no material sets or HUF arrays will be generated.
