 While ENVI-met comes with a variety of different programs, ENVI-met's core is the true workhorse of the bundle. In the core the real action takes place i.e. the high resolution microclimate simulation. While ENVI-met comes with a variety of different programs, ENVI-met's core is the true workhorse of the bundle.

 ===== Simulation time ===== ===== Simulation time =====
Line 10: Line 17:
 Either way, simulation time strongly depends on the hardware, the simulation settings (e.g. pollutant simulations with active chemistry take longer than standard simulations), and the model area. Even if the model area is rather small in its horizontal dimensions, many people want a very high resolution in vertical dimension as well and thus add 100 or even more Z cells. That massively increases the simulation time and is not necessary in most cases (see question “How do I find the best vertical gridding for my model area without the need of too much Z cells?” in [[apps:spaces| Spaces section]] for more details). Either way, simulation time strongly depends on the hardware, the simulation settings (e.g. pollutant simulations with active chemistry take longer than standard simulations), and the model area.

 +===== Comand-line Version =====
 +A comand-line version (a version with no GUI) of ENVI-met core can be found in \win64: ''envicore_console.exe''.
 +
 +If you start  ''envicore_console.exe'' without parameters, a dialog will ask you to specify the **Workspace Folder**, the **Project Name** and the **.SIMX File** to be used.
 +
 +You can also pass these settings via the comand line using parameters (without "{})":

 +The terminal output of the console application is limited compared to the information shown in the "normal" GUI Version.
