1. Output FilesΒΆ
These output files are written out by EFDC+ in a binary format. The easiest way to view the results is using EE Modeling System (EEMS). A demo of EEMS is available and can be accessed by going to the EEMS website. Alternatively, a rudimentary postprocessing tool is available, referred to as GetEFDC. GetEFDC is a Fortran 90 program that can read the binary formats and can be modified to output into another format like a text file. A detailed description of GetEFDC is found on the next page.
In the table below each of the binary output files is listed and described.
| Output file name | Description |
|---|---|
| EE_WS.OUT | Water depth |
| EE_WC.OUT | Water column and top layer of sediments |
| EE_BC.OUT | Computed boundary flows |
| EE_BED.OUT | Sediment bed layer information |
| EE_WQ.OUT | Water quality information for the water column |
| EE_SD.OUT | Sediment diagensis information |
| EE_RPEM.OUT | Rooted plant and epiphyte model |
| EE_SEDZLJ.OUT | Sediment bed data for sedzlj sub-model |
| EE_HYD.OUT | Water depth and velocity |
Some of these outputs are optional based on the options set in the efdc.inp file.
