NEW version of HGS (HGS PREMIUM October 2024 (REVISION 2732)

The HydroGeoSphere Revision 2732 (October 2024) is now available for download.

This update introduces key enhancements designed to improve your simulation experience. The highlight of this release is a significant improvement to the scaling factor, enabling you to adjust the associated time series for HGS runs without modifying the raw input. This feature simplifies unit conversions and allows for on-the-fly input calibration, making your workflow more efficient and flexible. Here’s the full list of updates:

1. Fix issue with the new zone command when applied to the dual continuum domain that causes HGS to modify the current set of chosen nodes unbeknownst to the user.

2. Improve error checking for flux nodal from outlet boundary condition.

3. Improve error checking when defining surface cutoff walls.

4. Add error check to hgs2vtu for duplicate variable names based on case-insensitive string comparison.

5. New boundary condition command time varying scaling factor in which the scaling factor is interpolated from a time-value table (see hydrosphere_ref.pdf).

6. New command elevation to file that writes the nodal elevations for a specified 2-D node sheet to a user specified ASCII file (see hydrosphere_ref.pdf).

7. Update the reference manual hydrosphere_ref.pdf.

You can find details about these new features in the HydroGeoSphere Reference Manual. And as always, we are committed to the continued improvement to the user experience. Do you have suggestions for new commands or improvements to the user experience? Send your ideas to support@aquanty.com!
