PINCHXY

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserGRID

The PINCHXY keyword defines the x-direction and y-direction threshold thickness used to control the generation of Non-Neighbor Connections (“NNCs”) in the x- and y- directions for missing cells in the areal plane.

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

Notes:

The keyword is terminated by a “/”.

A real number defining the pinch-out threshold width for any cell in the y-direction. NNCs are generated across inactive cells having a width less than PINCHTHY in the y-direction.DOUBLELengthft. 0.001m 0.001cm 0.001Defined

Example

The example below will create NNCs between the cells in the areal plane having cell widths less than 0.01 in either feet or metres in both the x- and y-directions.
