Input and data selection

Select simulation inputs, variables, restart steps, CSV columns, and the Flow executable.

-i/--input <INPUT>

Set the base name or full path of the input. Separate multiple inputs with spaces, for example SPE11B /home/user/SPE11B_TUNED.

Default: SPE11B

-v/--variable <VARIABLES>

Select the variables to plot. Separate variables with commas, for example pressure,sgas.

An empty entry can act as a placeholder when the corresponding input is configured with plopm -cc:

plopm -v ",BWPR:256,1,5" -cc "1,3;"

Special variables include grid, wells, faults, pcfact, limipres, overpres, objepres, krw, krg, krow, krog, pcow, pcog, pcwg, gasm, dism, liqm, vapm, co2m, h2om, xco2l, xh2ov, xco2v, xh2ol, fwcdm, and fgipm.

Default: poro,permx,permz,porv,fipnum,satnum

-r/--restart <STEPS>

Select restart steps. 0 is the initial state and -1 is the last state. Separate selected steps with commas, for example 0,2 or 0,3,10,20, or use start:end[:step], for example 1:3, 0:4:2, or 5:505:250.

GIF output uses all available steps when this option is omitted.

Default: -1

-cc/--csv-columns <COLUMNS>

Set CSV column indices, starting at 1. Use t,value for a time series or x,y,value for a spatial map.

Separate specifications for different inputs with semicolons. An empty specification skips the corresponding input, for example ;1,2,5 or 1,3;.

Default: empty

-fp/--flow-path <COMMAND>

Set the path or command for the Flow executable, for example /home/build/bin/flow. This is used only to generate the grid for VTK output.

Default: flow
