RADIAL

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserRUNSPEC

RADIAL activates the radial grid geometry option for the model, if this keyword and the SPIDER keyword are omitted then Cartesian geometry is assumed by OPM Flow.

See also the SPIDER keyword in the RUNSPEC section (SPIDER – Spider Grid Activation Option). This is an OPM Flow specific keyword for the simulator’s Spider Grid option, that emulates a Radial Grid via corner-point geometry. Spider and Radial grids generated by OPM Flow will be displayed the same in OPM ResInsight, as they are both output as Cartesian Irregular Corner-Point Grids. The difference is that the radial model’s pore volumes are adjusted to match the radial geometry pore volumes, whereas the Spider grid volumes are not adjusted. See the examples in the section on Radial Grids (Radial Grids) and Spider Grids (Spider Grids) for further information.
