The BOUSS-2D graphical interface includes tools to assit with creating, editing, and debugging a BOUSS-2D model. The BOUSS-2D interface exists in the Cartesian Grid Module.


Model Control

The BOUSS-2D Model Control Dialog is used to setup the options that apply to the simulation as a whole. These options include time controls, run types, output options, global parameters, print options and other global settings.

Boundary Conditions

All numeric models require boundary condition data. In BOUSS-2D, boundary conditions are defined on cell strings. The default boundary condition is a closed boundary (no flow). See BOUSS-2D BC Cell Strings for more information.

Running the Model

The BOUSS-2D files are written automatically with the SMS project file or can be saved separately using the File | Save BOUSS-2D or File | Save As menu commands. See BOUSS-2D Files for more information on the files used for the BOUSS-2D run.

BOUSS-2D can be launched from SMS using the BOUSS-2D | Run BOUSS-2D menu command. A check of some of the common problems called the Model Checker is done each time the model is launched, or by selecting the BOUSS-2D | Model Check menu command.
