UPSCALE_PERM(1)

💖 UPSCALE_PERM 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is literally the manual page for upscale_perm, and it is so much cooler than it sounds. it lives in the User Commands section of the manual (that's section 1, iykyk) 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

upscale_perm — upscale permeability. that's it. that's the name. she does one thing and she does it iconically 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

upscale_perm [option value] [grid file]

so you give her some options, you give her a grid file, and she does her little thing. main character energy fr fr 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the vibe: upscale_perm upscales permeability to one effective permeability tensor for the whole model. one tensor. the whole model. she ate and left no crumbs 👑

like, all that fine-scale permeability detail? she smooshes it down into a single effective tensor. that's the whole job. that's the whole girl. 🌸

Example usage:

upscale_perm -bc p -output upscaledperm.txt grid.grdecl

look at her go. boundary conditions set to p, output going to upscaledperm.txt, and grid.grdecl riding shotgun. no cap, that's the whole flow 🫶

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -bc — which boundary conditions to use, bestie. possible values are:
  • p — periodic 🌀
  • f — fixed 🔒
  • l — linear 📏

and if you don't say anything? it defaults to f. she just picks fixed for you. lowkey helpful of her ngl 💖

• -output — the filename for where to write upscaled values. that's it, that's the whole option. give her a name, she writes the values there ✨

---
