38) Click on Diagnostic Information. We will specify the diagnostic value as:

1. Enter Element Number as 1.
2. Select No Time from Time Options.
3. Enter Frequency of Diagnostic Information as 10.
4. In the Variable List Select S from Calculated Value Column and P and P2 from Normalized Flux Balance Disparity. (Note Selected P is not visible in the Fig 4.9 but select P also). After entering the values the Diagnostics Dialog will look like as shown in Fig 4.9.

Click Apply when finished.

Note that we have not specified any variables for diagnostic output, which points the solver to the default, as explained in the PORFLOW™ Manual: "The default diagnostic output depends on the equations being solved and the nature of the problem. For transient problems, time is always printed as the first value. Then up to 8 (for transient) or 9 (for steady state) other diagnostic indicators are selected. The order of selection is: values of the active field variables, flux balances and matrix residue for the variables for which the governing equations are solved."

39) Now Click on Time History of Variables. Enter the value for Time History as follows

1. Click on Enter Locations for Time History Button. A Option Dialog will appear prompting for Enter Number of Elements Enter 4 as Number of Elements and click Ok. Next Enter 4 elements as shown in Fig 5.0.

2. Select P, P2, S, S2 variables from variable List. (Press ctrl to select variables from arbitrary locations).
3. Check Plot as well Check Box.
4. Enter 10 as Print Frequency in Number of Steps as shown in Fig 5.1 below:
