open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Dear all,

I have already left some messages on the forum and once again I ask for help, the purpose of my project is to release sediments in suspension in a part of my domain studied. I use Telemac3D and Gaia for that purpose.

I have succeeded to do it throught a source implemented in my domain, so the sediments are released via that source in suspension and are followed by tracers.

Can someone tell me if it is possible not to use single location source but some kind of polygone (for isntance as it is done in Nestor examples issued with v8p0r2 version) through which my sediments would be released? If so do you think it would be more adapted than a source for a simulation?

Thank you,
Léa

Hello Lea,

If you had used TELEMAC-2D, I would have told you yes (see keyword SOURCE REGIONS DATA FILE), but this feature has not been implemented for TELEMAC-3D.

Anyway, if you do not have so many source points to define, you can use the list of their global numbers with the keyword GLOBAL NUMBERS OF SOURCE NODES.

Hope this helps,
