open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hello,

I have successfully ran a TELEMAC-3D simulation and gotten the SERAFIN result file. However, I would like to use the result file as input in a particle-tracking model which only recognises NetCDF files.

Is there a method/software to convert .slf file to .nc file?

Hi,

what do you mean with NetCDF, do you mean NetCDF with the Ugird standard?
You use an unstructured mesh in Telemac, so far I know the standard NetCDF supports no unstructured meshes. There is a proposal (ugrid) for unstructured meshes.
Usually you have to convert/interpolate your data on a structured mesh. I think it is no good idea to do particle tracking on an interpolated set of data? Maybe this depends on your tracking algorithm.

If you use the search button you will find some more posts about NetCDF in the forum.


Best regards
