Explanation of Variables¶

Block: ATTRIBUTES¶

NAMES xxx
time_series_names Name by which a package references a particular time-array series. The name must be unique among all time-array series used in a package.
METHODS xxx
interpolation_method Interpolation method, which is either STEPWISE or LINEAR.
METHOD xxx
interpolation_method_single Interpolation method, which is either STEPWISE or LINEAR.
SFACS xxx
sfacval Scale factor, which will multiply all array values in time series. SFAC is an optional attribute; if omitted, SFAC = 1.0.
SFAC xxx

Block: TIMESERIES¶

ts_time A numeric time relative to the start of the simulation, in the time unit used in the simulation. Times must be strictly increasing.
ts_array A 2-D array of numeric, floating-point values, or a constant value, readable by the U2DREL array-reading utility.
