info icon Restart Files

By default, a restart.n file is written with every plot.n file.

If "No restart" is specified as a plot file variable, no restart files will be written at any time.

If "Final restart" is specified as a plot file variable, the only restart file written will be at the final timestep or at the termination of a simulation.

Note that a null units field must follow the No Restart or Final Restart keywords.

tip icon 3D Grid
For 2D and cylindrical coordinate systems, STOMP writes output in a 2D plane (an X-Z slice for cylindrical coordinate systems). For output in 3 dimensions (a plane with a unit depth or a wedge), the user can specify 3d grid as a plot file variable. This allows plotting with software packages that require the data be in 3D (such as Paraview). Note that a null units field must follow the 3d grid keyword.
