The **Sector Model Export [BETA]** feature exports a subset of a simulation model to a standalone DATA file that can be used as input for a new simulation. It supports boundary conditions, grid refinement, model padding, and optional direct integration with an OPM Flow simulation job.
8+
9+
To launch the wizard, right-click on a **3D View** and select **Export Sector Model [BETA]**.
10+
11+
The export is configured through a step-by-step wizard with the following pages.
12+
13+
---
14+
15+
## General Settings
16+
17+
Specify the name and output folder for the new sector model.
18+
19+
- **Sector Model Name** -- The base name (without extension) for the exported DATA file.
20+
- **Export Folder** -- The folder where the exported files will be written. Must differ from the source case folder.
21+
- **Source Information** -- Read-only display of the source case name and location on disk.
22+
23+
---
24+
25+
## Sector Model Definition
26+
27+
Select which cells to include in the export.
28+
29+
- **Cells to Export** -- Choose one of the following options:
30+
- **Visible Cells Box** -- IJK bounding box around currently visible cells (controlled by range and property filters in the view).
31+
- **Active Cells Box** -- IJK bounding box around all active cells in the grid.
32+
- **Visible Wells Box** -- IJK bounding box surrounding visible wells, extended by a configurable number of cells.
33+
- **Well Padding** -- Number of extra cells to add around visible wells (default: 2).
34+
- **Full Grid Box** -- The complete grid including inactive cells.
35+
- **Manual Selection** -- Enter the IJK min/max coordinates directly.
36+
37+
The dialog shows the **Total cells to export** to help assess the size of the sector model.
38+
39+
---
40+
41+
## Refinement
42+
43+
Optionally refine the exported grid by subdividing cells in each direction.
44+
45+
- **Enable Grid Refinement** -- Check to activate refinement.
46+
- **Cell Count I, J, K** -- Number of sub-cells per original cell in each direction (range 1–10). Grid result values are not interpolated; all new sub-cells inherit the value of their parent cell.
47+
48+
---
49+
50+
## Boundary Conditions
51+
52+
Configure how boundary conditions are defined for the sector model faces.
53+
54+
- **Boundary Condition Type** -- Select one of:
55+
- **OPERNUM/OPERATER** -- Uses OPERNUM and OPERATER keywords to define boundary conditions. A **PORV Multiplier** can be set to scale the pore volume at the sector model boundary (default: 1.0e6).
56+
- **BCCON/BCPROP** -- Uses BCCON and BCPROP keywords. A table of BCPROP keywords is shown, with one row per BCCON region. The number of rows is determined automatically from the maximum BCCON value found in the grid (defaulting to 6 for the six faces).
57+
58+
---
59+
60+
## Keyword Adjustments
61+
62+
Control which keywords from the source DATA file are excluded from the exported sector model.
63+
64+
- **Keywords to Remove from Output** -- A list of keywords that will be stripped from the export. The default list contains: `ACTION`, `ACTIONX`, `ACTIONW`, `BOX`, `UDQ`. Use the **Reset to Default** button to restore this list.
65+
66+
---
67+
68+
## Model Padding
69+
70+
Optionally extend the sector model grid in the Z direction by adding inactive padding layers above and/or below the exported cells. This can be useful to ensure that the sector model has a complete pressure column.
71+
72+
- **Enable Model Padding** -- Check to activate padding.
73+
74+
**Upper Padding**
75+
76+
- **Number of Z Layers** -- Number of padding layers to add above the model.
77+
- **Top Depth** -- Depth of the top of the uppermost padding layer.
78+
- **Porosity** -- Porosity value assigned to the upper padding layers (range 0–1).
79+
- **EQUILNUM** -- EQUILNUM region number for the upper padding layers.
80+
81+
**Lower Padding**
82+
83+
- **Number of Z Layers** -- Number of padding layers to add below the model.
84+
- **Bottom Depth** -- Depth of the bottom of the lowermost padding layer.
85+
86+
**Grid Options**
87+
88+
- **Minimum Layer Thickness** -- Minimum thickness of each padding layer (default: 0.1).
89+
- **Fill Gaps in Z Direction** -- Fill any gaps between the model and the padding layers.
90+
- **Enforce Monotonic Z-Corners** -- Ensures that Z-corner values are monotonically increasing.
91+
- **Make Pillars Vertical** -- Forces the pillars of padding cells to be vertical.
92+
93+
---
94+
95+
## Simulation Job Settings
96+
97+
Optionally create an OPM Flow simulation job from the exported sector model, and/or immediately run it.
98+
99+
- **Create New Simulation Job** -- Check to add a new OPM Flow job using the exported sector model DATA file as input.
100+
- **Job Name** -- Name of the new simulation job (defaults to the sector model name).
101+
- **Working Folder** -- Folder where the simulation job will store input and output files. Must differ from the export folder and the source case folder.
102+
- **Start Simulation Job After Export** -- When checked, all existing OPM Flow jobs that use the exported sector model file as input will be started automatically after the export completes.
103+
104+
See [OPM Flow Integration]({{% relref "opm-flow-integration" %}}) for more details on working with simulation jobs.
