    Before running a calculation in PIPENET VISION, the user selects which graphical and tabular results to output to avoid storing and processing unnecessarily large files. For example, a network with 50 pipes subdivided into 5 sections each, with 5 result items per pipe, simulated over 5000 time steps could generate over 7.5 million results. Selecting only needed outputs prevents slow searches and plots from extremely large output files.

    TRANSIENT: CHAPTER 4
    REVISION 2.1, SEP 2010

    We shall now discuss how to select results that are to be output.


    Before a calculation has been performed in PIPENET VISION, the user selects the
    graphical and tabular results that are to be output. Let us consider why this is important.
    Suppose that we have a network that contains 50 pipes, each subdivided into 5 sections
    (or grids), and each pipe having 5 items of results for output. If the number of time steps is
    5000, then the total number of results that need to be stored is
    5001 x 50 x 6 x 5 = 7,501,500
    (if all of the data is stored). Note that 5001 (and not 5000) is used in the calculation, as the
    initial set of data is also output. Also, pipe results are given at both ends of the pipe (so
    that there are 6 values for the 5 subdivisions).
    It is not a good idea to store such large files routinely. Further, the process of searching
    and plotting results from such large files is usually relatively slow.
