4 Output files

4.1 Output file names

Format of output file names:

[Project Name].[Identifier].[Format]

-The [Project Name] is user defined name of the project, so every input and output files must start with the [Project Name]. -The [Format] is one of csv or dat. csv is spreadsheet format and dat is bindary format.

The [Identifier] is a combination of variables features, that in format of: [Model Unit][Variable Type][Variable Name]. [Model Unit] is one of three options of ele (elemtns), riv (river) or lak (lake). Variable type includes y, v and q that are state variable (in $L$ ), specific flux (in $L^{3} / L^{2} / T$ ) and flux (in $L^{3} / T$ ) respectively.

The list of output files is in following table.

4.2 Data format in ASCII (.csv) file

N - Number of column of output data, excluding the time column. m - Number of time-step. StartTime - String of date/time (YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDD.hhmmss)

N	StartTime
$T_{1}$	$v_{1 \cdot 1}$	$v_{1 \cdot 2}$	…	$v_{1 \cdot N}$
$T_{2}$	$v_{2 \cdot 1}$	$v_{2 \cdot 2}$	…	$v_{2 \cdot N}$
$T_{3}$	$v_{3 \cdot 1}$	$v_{3 \cdot 2}$	…	$v_{3 \cdot N}$
…	…	…	…	…
$T_{m}$	$v_{m \cdot 1}$	$v_{m \cdot 2}$	…	$v_{m \cdot N}$

4.3 Data format in binary (.dat) file
