I am trying to replicate the extended tutorial "Simulate Smoky Nuclear Test" (https://www.ready.noaa.gov/documents/Tu ... _test.html). However, I do not know how to create the PARDUMP file. I am using the terminal only (no GUI). I set up the CONTROL file as given in the tutorial. The SETUP is partly described in the tutorial but not given (nor in the zip file). I tried things like:
NDUMP = -12,
NCYCL = 0,
POUTF='PARDUMP'
But no PARDUMP file was created.
Can you help me?
create PARDUMP file using terminal
Re: create PARDUMP file using terminal
If you click the penguin at the top of the tutorial page it will download a bash script that will write the control, setup and emitimes file.
Here is the part for writing the setup file.
echo "&SETUP " >SETUP.CFG
echo "initd = 0, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "numpar = 15000, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "maxpar = 200000, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "ichem = 5, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "nbptyp = 5, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "ndump = 2, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "ncycl = 2, " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "poutf = PARDUMP," >>SETUP.CFG
echo "EFILE = 'EMITIMES', " >>SETUP.CFG
echo "/ " >>SETUP.CFG
so you need ndump=2, ncycl=2 to get the same as the tutorial.
That being said, ncycl = -12 should have produced a pardump file. see user guide

Please post your MESSAGE file if you continue to have trouble getting a pardump output.
You can look at it to make sure it is reading your SETUP file properly or if there is some issue.
