Computed flows can be automatically summed and displayed for FEMWATER simulations. To enable this option, the ''Save flux file | Computed flows can be automatically summed and displayed for FEMWATER simulations. To enable this option, the ''Save flux file (*.flx)'' option must be selected in the ''FEMWATER Output Control'' dialog prior to saving the FEMWATER model. When this option is selected, FEMWATER saves a lumped nodal flow dataset file as part of the FEMWATER solution. This file is automatically read into GMS as part of the FEMWATER solution. | ||
Once a FEMWATER flux file has been read into memory as part of a FEMWATER solution, the computed flux through a set of nodes can be displayed simply by selecting the nodes. The flow budget (in, out, net) for the selected nodes is displayed in the [[GMS:The GMS Window|''Status Bar'']] at the bottom of the GMS window. The flow budget is only displayed if the active solution is a FEMWATER solution. | Once a FEMWATER flux file (*.flx) has been read into memory as part of a FEMWATER solution, the computed flux through a set of nodes can be displayed simply by selecting the nodes.

It should be noted that lumped nodal fluxes are only non-zero for boundary nodes where a boundary condition has been assigned. | It should be noted that lumped nodal fluxes are only non-zero for boundary nodes where a boundary condition has been assigned. |
