Input Instructions

Input to the Output Control Option of the Groundwater Flow Process is read from the file that is specified as type "OC" in the name file. If no "OC" file is specified, default output control is used. Under the default, head and overall budget are written to the listing file (printed) at the end of every stress period. The default printout format for head and drawdown is 10G11.4.

There are two ways to specify Output Control data: words or numeric codes. One of these methods must be used throughout any simulation.
