FEFLOW Material Types

This feature is only available with the Hydrogeology extension. See Flow Models for more information.

When a FEFLOW model is first evaluated against a geological model, a material types table () is added to the FEFLOW grid in the project tree. You can edit material types by double-clicking on the table. You can also open the table by right-clicking on the grid and selecting Edit Material Types.

If the grid has been imported into Leapfrog Works and has not yet been evaluated against a geological model, you will be prompted to do so. Expand the model in the project tree, right-click on the grid object and select Evaluate Geological Model. See FEFLOW Evaluations for more information.

If more than one object has been evaluated on the grid, you can set material types separately for each evaluation. Select the required evaluation from the Evaluation list:

However, the only material types information that will be exported is that set for the evaluation to be exported.

In the Edit Material Types window, you can enter the values for material types manually or you can use the values from an interpolant.

To enter values manually, click on a cell, then enter the value in the Value field:

Press the Enter key to move down the columns.

To use the values from an interpolant, click the Interpolant button, then select an interpolant from the list. The interpolant that will be used for the selected value will be displayed in the field:

To use the interpolant for all the values in the selected column, click the All Lithologies button. The window will be updated to show that the interpolant values will be used for that column:

Click OK to update the grid.
