FILEUNIT

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserGRIDEDITPROPSREGIONSSOLUTIONSCHEDULE

Variant 1 — GRID section

The FILEUNIT keyword defines the units of the data set, and is used to verify that the units in the input deck and any associated include files are consistent. The keyword does not provide for the conversion between different sets of units.

Notes:

No unit conversion is performed.

The keyword is terminated by a “/”.

OPM Flow's behavior is controllable through the "UNIT_SYSTEM_MISMATCH" environment variable. The default behavior if the check fails (i.e., if one of the INCLUDE files has a unit system different from the main run specification) is to terminate the simulation with an error.
