FLO-2D Results Tool

The results tool is used to see results by location for specific components.

Connect to the Data

  1. Start by loading the completed simulation folder into the Run FLO-2D - Settings Tool.

Note

The FLO-2D Project folder is updated everytime that files are exported. Double check path before using the tool.

Floodplain Cross Section Results

Important

FLO-2D Pro Build 25 engine and FLO-2D Gila 2.0 plugin include a floodplain cross section tool that can read from any new cross section using a time dependent file called TIMDEPXSEC.HDF5. to set this file up, go here:

Run XSEC Time Series Results

  1. Click any floodplain cross section to load the results in the table and plotting panel. Note the new option Read from TIMDEPXSEC.HDF5 can be used for any new floodplain cross section. The old option Read from HYCROSS.OUT is used for predefined floodplain cross sections that were saved to FPXSEC.DAT.

  2. Learn how to build floodplain cross sections for either case here: Create Floodplain Cross Sections
