NXFIN

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserGRID

NXFIN defines the number of Local Grid Refinement (“LGR”) cells within a global or host cell in the x-direction via a vector, as opposed to defining the size for each cell for a Cartesian LGR Grid. The LGR keyword in the RUNSPEC section should be activated to indicate an LGR is being used, and the keyword NXFIN should be placed in between the CARFIN and ENDFIN keywords in the GRID section.

This keyword is not supported by OPM Flow but would change the results if supported so the simulation will be stopped.

Notes:

The number of entries should correspond to the NX parameter on the CARFIN keyword in the GRID section.

The keyword is terminated by a “/”.

See also the CARFIN, ENDFIN, NYFIN, and NZFIN keywords in the GRID section to fully define a Cartesian LGR grid model.

Parameters

No.NameDescriptionFieldMetricLabDefault
1NXFINNXFIN is a vector of integer numbers describing the number of LGR cells within each defined global or host grid block in the x-direction in a Cartesian LGR grid. Repeat counts may be used, for example 2*2.0.dimensionlessdimensionlessdimensionlessNone

Example

ENDFIN
The above example splits the global cells (24-25,87, 1-50) into four and four LGR grid blocks in the x-direction, and since the HXFIN keyword has not been supplied, then the host cells will split into equal proportions.
