Communication between the SPRING modules for calculation, data export and plotting takes place via the background files . The background files are generated automatically by the modules. They are binary files and cannot be changed directly by the user. The modules access these background files via a standardised interface (SPRING-DTNLIB,).

The background files are files with the names aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd etc. The control file aaa (binary) is not managed by the DTNLIB.

To get quick access to a list of the available data, the files are always matched at least in pairs:

The actual data file(s), in which the data fields of the individual data are stored, always include an index file, in which a list of the respective data with additional information (identifier, class, number, min/max values, time, etc.) is stored.

 

 

The following files are currently used by DTNLIB:

• Input data:

bbb (index)

ccc (data)

 

• steady state result data and interpolation results:

ddd (index)

eee (data)

 

• Transient result data:

fff (index)

ggg (data 1: last time step)

hhh (data 2: over time)

iii (data 3: over time)

jjj (data 4: over time)

kkk (data 5: for transient subsidence)

 

• Result data from data export calculations:

lll (index)

mmm (data)

 

• Inverse modelling data:

nnn (index)

ooo (data)
